Oi You!

We heard the cry after walking down a steep hill in the hot sun. Looking behind we saw a man coming out of his front gate and Jeremy said "uh-oh" and we were looking for an escape route.

The man looked at us and said "Are you walkers?" to which we shrugged and replied yes.

He then asked us where we'd been, what we'd seen, why we were doing it all and would we like some home-grown tomatoes. Of course we said yes.

The gentleman gave us a big bag with tomatoes, cucumbers and courgettes from his garden, shook our hands and wished us a safe onward journey.

As we walked on we ate warm tomatoes with that wonderful fresh-picked smell and the juice and pips ran down our chins. Lovely!
