Big Apple

Something very, very exciting just happened. We just bought the first Christmas tree of our very own.
We headed along Dumbarton Road in search of some suitable trees, and found ourselves at the so-​named Fruit & Veg Florist. As well as the normal fruit, vegetable and flowers you would expect to find, they also had a selection of Christmas trees lining the street outside the shop.
The signs on the trees said from £21.99 — which was cheaper than any other trees we’d seen in the area. I was sold.
The two men in the shop (who I assume were brothers) came out to help us pick one. They were really friendly, and we picked out a five foot one. In return for a very sweet smile on my part, they gave it to us for £20.
They kept offering to deliver it for us, but we assured them that we lived just down the street and we could carry it back ourselves. (And by that, I meant that my boyfriend could carry it while I bounced along beside him with excitement).
A really nice friendly grocers, definitely worth a visit whether you’re looking for a Christmas tree, some decorations, or just the normal fruit and veg.
