Copsey's Greengrocer's


Time was there was only shops like this everywhere. In Upper Swallow the old ways remain - we have no big stores. Copsey's Greengrocer's has been here since 1854. Tim runs it now. He is up to date with things - you can buy aubergines and star fruits, though personally I don't see the need for them. I prefer to eat things when they come in season - seems more natural that way. Still each to their own. Tim is captain of the local darts team down at the George and Dragon. He also does a lot of touring on his motorbike with his girlfriend Sally. "Wild" Sally they used to call her. I remember those parties back in '79 when we were just kids. No harm in it I suppose.
