Pretty funny. Avocados are immigrating to Canada in this political climate....

Praise be that I wasn’t with you when this happened. I would have laughed so hard I needed medical intervention.

Oh, June, I wish you had been - we could have kept each other laughing in the ambulance ...

Miranda Hart (comedienne) made an art from doing this to comics effect

Did you ever find out where that avocado came from?

I adore Miranda Hart! Thank you, thank you, I'm going to go and watch some Miranda now as a reward for having survived until Tuesday lunchtime! No I never found where the Vancouver avocado came from, but I bought a glorious one at the Farmers Market on Sunday with which I intend to indulge myself further over my watching. Gotta go ...

Oh, Sheena, how suave, I feel I've gone up a notch in sophistication. Thank you!

Very happy to read this, Sheila, and with a recent quordle word too. Nice one!

This made me smile this morning Gabrielle! Sounds as if you made her day, and were very gracious (even if you didn’t get much information…)

Glad you liked it, Ann! Yes, the waitress was very happy with the occasion, and indeed so was I - I get plenty of other information in the course of my day but a superior avocado in Canada is something to be celebrated.

I'd certainly have proposed that one as an alien of extraordinary merit. It was delicious!
