Harvey family
FATHER PERKIN HARVEY runs the Village Store that was started by his now retired mother and father many moons ago. Perkin thoroughly enjoys his work, meeting and greeting his friendly customers and keeping the store clean and tidy with all the shelves well stocked and the fruit and vegetables beautifully presented in racks and baskets. (11 Dec)
MOTHER DOROTHY HARVEY (born TABBY) likes everything in their store neat and tidy just like her husband, Perkin. She is also a bit of a tease and has been known to surreptitiously turn some of the food cans on the shelves upside down just to see her darling husband get into a bit of a fluster! (17 Sep)
BROTHER AUSTIN HARVEY likes to help his mother and father in the store and would love to run the store himself one day. He is encouraged by his Grandfather Bert, whom would like the family business to stay in the family. (23 Feb)
SISTER ZARA HARVEY is not very keen on working in the family business, she finds the whole process of shopkeeping rather tiresome and annoying. So she is working hard at her schoolwork with the idea of going to University to get a degree in Social Economics. (29 Jul)
BABY SISTER LIBERTY HARVEY loves it when her parents take her to work with them. She just loves crawling around and touching everything, which drives her parents mad at times. Perkin was not impressed when she knocked over his prized tower of canned soup last winter, so now says she must be kept in her play pen whenever she comes to the store. (26 Aug)
BABY SISTER LULU HARVEY loves it when her parents take her to work with them. She just loves crawling around and touching everything, which drives her parents mad at times. Perkin was not impressed when she knocked over his prized tower of canned soup last winter, so now says she must be kept in her play pen whenever she comes to the store. (17 May)

GRANDFATHER BERT HARVEY opened the Village Store many moons ago with his darling wife Joyes. Even though they have both now retired and the store is run by their son, Perkin, neither of them can completely let go. Bert likes to pop into the store most afternoons, just to see that everything is alright. Oh! and while he is there he might as well just restock and tidy the shelves!
GRANDMOTHER JOYES HARVEY (born HOUSTON), like her husband Bert, enjoyed her long working life in the Village Store and misses chatting to the customers. So she also pops into the store most days with a "You look like you need a break and a cup of refreshing tea!" Closely followed by "Don't worry, I can look after the till!"
