SYLVIA |
And that's 52 pence change. Thanks very much. See you again. |
|
|
CUSTOMER |
Yeah, thanks. Seeya. |

|
GINA |
Hey, Sylvia, how are you doing? |
|
|
SYLVIA |
Oh, hello. |
|
|
GINA |
Busy this morning? |
|
|
SYLVIA |
Well, you could say that. To tell the truth, I've been rushed off my feet. You see, the competition just isn't what it used to be. |
|
|
GINA |
You mean Gary? |
|
|
SYLVIA |
Can't you hear? |
|
|
GINA |
That noise is coming from Gary's stall? |
|
|
SYLVIA |
Well, it used to be Gary's stall... |
|
|
GINA |
Hey, I'm going to take a look. See you later. ... |
|
|
LEMMY |
Ey oop! A customer! Morning, love. What can I do for you? |
|
|
GINA |
Could you turn it down? |
|
|
LEMMY |
Sorry? |
|
|
GINA |
Could you turn down the music a bit? This used to be a fruit and vegetable stall, you know. |
|
|
LEMMY |
Well, still says it up there, doesn't it? |
|
|
GINA |
Yes. It's just that I don't see any for sale. |
|
|
LEMMY |
Appearances can be deceptive though, love. Just try me. |
|
|
GINA |
Okay. Have you got any strawberries? |
|
|
LEMMY |
No. |
|
|
GINA |
Potatoes? |
|
|
LEMMY |
No. |
|
|
GINA |
Cauliflower? |
|
|
LEMMY |
No. |
|
|
GINA |
So, you don't actually have any fruit and vegetables for sale at all. |
|
|
LEMMY |
Well, Gary's been selling the same old things for a long time, hasn't he? Potatoes, parsnips, pound of swedes - where's the money in that? I thought it was time for him to diversify. |
|
|
GINA |
Diversify... |

This is Covent Garden Piazza. Today, as you can see, this area is full of fashionable clothes shops, cafes, restaurants, wine bars, and so on. In fact, this used to be the main fruit and vegetable market for Central London, so in the past, lorries carrying fruit and vegetables from farmyards, market gardens, all over the country, used to come here very very early in the morning - and then the greengrocers from the shops serving the capital used to come and pick up their goods to drive back to their shops before the day's work started. |
