Banana thieving....
The price of this beloved yet scarce fruit seems to pushing some people over the edge....or at least into a life of crime.....

It's a big problem... Australia's violent "banana culture."
A "banana amnesty" can't be far off now...

I had a banana on top of my bran flakes this morn, and one after my lunch.
You cant beat a banana.
Or perhaps you could but it would get squashed.

It's generally considered inadvisable.

And I have 2 bananas left and I am not afraid to use them.
They were quite cheap as well.
Does anyone want to see my peach? I have 4 in the fridge.

Well you see, all this talk of fruit has made me think. A nice apple, banana or even a bunch of grapes can stop you being constipated. Constipation can lead to piles which can look like you have a bunch of grapes hanging from your botty.
Im sorry, I have visa madness.
Lets get back to bananas.
I dont like them when they go brown but they are very nice when mixed in with cereal.
Im quite excited. I am meeting my neice from Cyprus at the airport tomorrow.
(Sam leans forward to see if there is any horlicks left - there isnt. Bugger)
I sorted out some stuff for the hospice charity shop today. I chucked out 3 of my bears and then rooted through the bin bag, fell in love with them again and pulled them out along with my leather jacket.
There will be nothing left tomorrow.
My bear collection is as big now as it ever was.
Bloody hell, someone give me a visa.
