Strange Fruit (& Veg)

<Start seductive voiceover and Santana music> This isn't just a blog post, this is the finest blog post made from my memories of the weirdest Norfolk folk and carefully stolen images from google image search . . . .
</enough of that!>


While in Marks & Spencer on Saturday, I found my way somewhat blocked by four old people standing in the fruit and veg section. I sneaked past them to grab some greens and noticed that they were standing in a line, not speaking, and staring very intently at the vegetables. I then went to get some choccy cake, bread and wine (good diet!) and a few minutes later went back down the fruit and veg, past the same four people still staring at the vegetables. One of them finally spoke: "There aren't enough vegetables here, let's go to the farm shop instead."


Had I stumbled upon the British entry in the International Fruit & Vegetable Staring Contest having a training session? Are they now in a farm shop staring some poor carrots and pears into submission? Or is this just a popular pastime in Norfolk?


Anyway - I asked some fruit and veg for their comments.
