Races

The annual fruit and veg race was exciting again this year!
The hot favourite Onion pulled up injured and brought tears to fan's eyes.
Next was Potato who wasn't peeling well.
Rhubarb crumbled on the home straight.
Melon had a ball and took the bronze!
Tomato, well done to ketchup and take the gold ahead of Lemon who was bitter in defeat.
Turnip just didn't turn up

That takes some beeting

I heard Banana split his pants when in the lead and had to retire.
Those who had backed him to win blew Raspberries at him as he walked off the track.
That, of course, left Tomato in the lead and his watching wife, Olive, shouted "Go, man, go." With the God medal around his neck, Tomato later declared that he would be back next year to defend his crown, Kumquat may.
Yang-mei and Zig Zag Vine Fruit were the last Pear home.
Oh yeah, and the Ugli-fruit was refused entry unless he wore a mask. The organisers feared the sight of his face would give the watching children nightmares.

The milk pudding race had a false start when someone in the crowd shouted "Sago!"
