Fruit

Just woken from Tues pm haze by an ad for Waitrose - local producers from the village I grew up in, and YES spelt correctly!! Apple cider delivered to Ramsgate! Go Teynham and local farmers... which leads me to my other point of the day. In Sainsos - watched little Billy pick up pears and then drop them from a great height back into the display. Equals bruised pears and a lack of respect for fruit. Coupled with a puny punnet of raspberries retailed for 2 quid - we were never paid that per punnet when we picked them in the summer months and the condition of the little berries was not good. You just can't beat picking your berries fresh and straight off the fruiting bush - in the sun, home grown tasting of pure sunshine.

Goes to prove you can take the girl out of Kent but you can't take the Kent out of the girl...
