Thanks Dan Yes, that would be it. True grocers are few and far between here - about as common as milliners and far less common than picture framers.

So the answer to the OPs question is convenience store. d. > On 21 Apr 2015, at 19:45, Dan S <[email protected]> wrote: > > Hi, > > If I understand right, you're referring to a shop that sells roughly > the same stuff as a supermarket does, but small.
