New Book on Jackson Street
Who remembers George Gee and family, the wonderful green grocer and awesome mayor of the Petone Borough? George and his kind wife always looked after mum and her growing family of 7 kids well. Often my first chore always school was to wiz down to Gees Green Grocer to pick up a box of of slightly blemished fruit that he had sold to mum on her daily J Street shopping expedition for 10c.
