MY UNCLE'S A SHOPKEEPER
My uncle's a shopkeeper. He has a shop in an old village by the
River Thames near Oxford. The shop sells a lot of things bread,
milk, fruit, vegetables, newspapers - almost everything! It is also
the village post office. The children in the village always stop to
spend a few pence on sweets or ice cream on their way home from
school.
My uncle doesn't often leave the village. He hasn't got a car, so
once a month he goes by bus to Oxford and has lunch at the Grand
Hotel with some friends. He is one of the happiest men I know.
