Just a bit of an update on Voldermort the lemon....

As he aged he became even more comical.  He ended up looking like this, without any machinations by us at all.  He really did end up with an evil grin.
Cheers.

Hi Paul

Not in the same class as 'Voldermort the lemon' - but as you have started the thread I have at last found somewhere to place my potato!

Esther Rantzen would be proud of us.  ;)

Not sure is this picture is good enough - a poor scan of my son (some years ago now) with a Pink Fir Apple potato with all the bits (well most):

Was that as rude as I think it was?    :-X

Not a pink fir apple - but an apple anyway.  One of my colleagues is on holiday and I spotted this on their desk yesterday.
