She's been out there for years now, she teaches yoga during the day and helps Saro in the restaurant at night. D is my Uncle Chas's daughter, sister of the cousin who lost her hubby last year in that motorbike accident, if you remember.........

I wasn't joking! :D :D :D

Just outside RAF Akrotiri there were citrus groves. Very often there would be a granny sat crocheting next to a trestle loaded with fruit - lemons, oranges, limes, grapefruits. You couldn't tell what was what by looking at their colours as there were orange lemons and yellow oranges :lol: and they were all shapes and sizes with blemishes and scars on their skins. If no granny was there you just threw your money in the bowl and loaded up.

But when you got home and started on them they were the very best you would ever have.......

Now I fancy making some 'real' lemonade. :shock: :lol: :lol:
