    Slept in this morning (you can do that when you've retired;)) Missus went down to get the coffee being her turn, and discovered someone had hung a large fresh pineapple on the kitchen door handle outside! WTF?

    Checked all our accounts... Whatsapp, Facebook, Messenger, email etc. Nothing. There was no note or anything in the bag it came in . Bizarre :confused:

    Vegan version of a horse's head.

    There's an ethical mafia boss out there who wants you to keep quiet.

    Isn't a pineapple a sign of fertility/ virilty? Have either of you got a secret admirer?

    Only if hung upside down apparently!! How on Earth that became a 'signal' for a swinger's party location I have absolutely no idea.

    Mystery still ongoing... no-one has owned up. I wonder if more fruit will appear as the week wears on since it is only Monday. Could have a sizeable fruit salad at teh end of the week especially if someone leave us some cream on Saturday:)

    From “Day of the Fruit and Vegetables.”

    P27. “After years of being eaten by mankind, fruit and veg will take their revenge in the 21st Century. Pineapples will lead the first attack, attaching themselves to doors throughout Europe…”

    I saw a tomato in the gutter earlier. It’s starting….

    Somebody wants you to do a riff of the Jason Lee chant, playing your organ whilst singing "I've got a pineapple, on my head" to the tune of “He's Got The Whole World In His Hands".
