My banana's not looking too appetising today. <img src="/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />

[Badger]

Go see a doctor, then.

[Little Miss Urchin]

Why? Because my banana's bruised?

 

Besides, can't get an appointment for at least 2 weeks at my GP's. <img src="/images/graemlins/mad.gif" alt="" />

[Mr Happy]

Oh that's rotten

 

Just like the banana will be in two weeks!

[Little Miss Urchin]

It'll be worse than rotten - I ate it! <img src="/images/graemlins/alk.gif" alt="" />

[The Invisible Man]

What I really like - one of the things - is a banana sliced up on Kelloggs Special K With Red Berries, for breakfast.

 

Dead nice, I recommend it.

 

Mr Happy in particular should try it, it's better than Shreddies.

 

Waitrose bananas seem to be about the biggest, BTW - the ordinary ones, not the organic or the Fair Trade stuff. They are relatively straight, however, so may not the best option for those who prefer a banana with a pronounced curvature.

[Halifax Lass]

 

I'm just eating an extremely nice banana with yoghurt!

 

Trust you Invis to go on about curvature. Mind you I had you marked down as someone who went for the curved form!! <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

[The Invisible Man]

Oh yes, banana in Greek yoghurt with honey - brilliant!

 

Yes there is something about curves - the delicate form of the banana, the sublime parabola of a curled free kick, the graceful arcs of Gothic tracery, the shimmering wonder of a rainbow, the swell of a filled sail and the ournful droop of the weeping willow. Not forgetting the glorious golden relief of a pee in the Lea.

 

Ah yes, curves! Mind you Land Rovers are pretty square though.

(vaguelly)Interesting fact-sainsburys policy won't LET any of it's stores sell out of bananas,it's one of the things that must be in stock.

[Colin, Germany]

Another vaguely interesting fact - I had a banana and yoghurt yesterday with my breakfast. This morning I had a pear, though.

 

If you want to buy the last banana in a Sainsburys store, how do they stop you?

[Mr Happy]

I really do like a nice pair!

Always seem to have run out of the organic ones as my Mum keeps moaning (to me I might add, as if I can do anything about it!). Problem with organic banana's, they go off very quickly. The one's with goodness knows how many pesticides/chemicals used on them always last longer. Much better.

I really am worried about you Mr Happy. It seems the asylum is the best place for you!! Under the circumstances I would have second thoughts about accepting your invitation to the Old Wheatsheaf unless of course you were accompanied by your psychiatric nurse or Mrs Happy!!! <img src="/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Or his English teacher or a parent

[Mr Happy]

My Mum and Dad never go in pubs! however, my old English teacher was a regular in the back bar of the George in Enfield town years ago. Many of my sixth form collegues used to love putting the world to rights in there!

[The Invisible Man]

Ah, so you're an Old Grammarian, then!

[The Invisible Man]

Back to bananas and breakfast: I was in M&S at lunchtime, and as they don't sell Kellogs stuff I bought a packet of their own brand Berries Cherries and Flakes - their equivalent to Kellogs Special K With Red Berries, I presume. I also bought Seven Small Bananas to go with it.

 

I shall report after breakfast tomorrow.

[Badger]

Can't wait.

hheeeeeeellllllllllllllllllooooooooooo...........well,the situation should never arise so i dont think there is a back up plan/;

[The Invisible Man]

Right, well I had the M&S flakey things for breakfast, with a banana sliced on top. Not totally convinced, frankly, they're a bit hard and a tad bland.

 

So it's back to to the Kellogs SKWRB for me!
