Small Town

At the Greengrocers
"Have you got any Christmas trees, Sheila?"
"When do you want one?"
"Now?"
"How about we drop one round tomorrow? What size?"
*demonstrates with hand gesture
"About 3 feet?"
"Fine. How much?"
"Dont know yet. Remind me of the number."
"11. Can you make it late?"
"Of course, tomorrow after we close up."
*Goes home to excitedly retrieve deccies from the cellar.
I was just giving up hope, thus spoiling my fairytale illusion of happy greengrocery Christmas gnomes, merrily delivering Christmas Trees. when she turned up at half past seven. And charged me a stupidly small price. Happy days!
