One of the shops at the end of my road is the Mini-Mart. It is decidedly more mini than I had expected, but still with everything you would need of a corner shop. There is even a standing freezer stuffed with pizzas, chips and ready meals in case you run out. A bigger-than-usual array of sweets and chocolates can be found in here, with such gems as Fry’s Orange Creams. The guy that served us was friendly and polite. The best bit is that it’s open ’til midnight, for any late-night munchings you wish to embark on.
