Prime example, men's shoes, size 9 is, and always has been, the most popular size for the average man, so why don't they order 33% more size 9s than say, size 7 or 11 ?
But no, "do you have them in a 9 ? " I ask, expecting the answer no, " sorry, we've sold out, we've got plenty in the size 11 ".

And also those people who work in shops who say "We used to stock it". Thanks for that - I'll jump into my TARDIS and go back to when you did have it.

There's a road nearby that changed its number back in 2010, and the sign saying "(new number) formerly (old number)".
