A New, Very Convenient, Convenience Store In Our Lives.

Adam, the new supermarket on the cusp of the corner that eventually leads to The Towers has finally opened …….

……. and well, it would just be rude for Nigel not to quickly pop in and have a gander.

The first thing he noticed was the (faux) green grass step on the threshold of the shop  which he thought was very exotic and romantic, even for Evesham.

This was swiftly followed by the most beautiful, blue, marble flooring, that was posh beyond belief, this, Darrell had to see, the little fella told us on his return home. It was stunning, but could, if we weren't careful, give Darrell ideas way beyond his station!

Nigel complimented the new owners on their new, wonderful establishment and said he was pretty sure he’d become one of their most “regular” customers, as they were on the return lap of his school run ………. and then ….. he spotted the watermelons in the front ……. OMG, they were mahoooooooosive.  The last time he’d seen watermelons that big was in a Walmart in Last Vegas ……… for Nigel, life and adventure (i.e trying to get even a quarter of one of these bad boys home) had just gone up another whole notch! What earth is he like?
