Would You Like A Banana

I took the dogs on their normal late afternoon stroll along the canal, as I came back off the canal and under the Gurnett aqueduct there was a larger Turkish registered semi trailer (Artic) stopped just before the bridge, it looked too high so I offered to be his eyes and see if I could guide him through.

I kept him dead in the centre and guided him through safely, there was just a couple of inches to spare either side.

When we got through I walked ahead but he held up all the traffic and came running after me to thank me and offer me a gift......A Banana!

He was very happy, he would have had to back up about a mile if he didn't go through!

  1. Somewhere in there must be the old joke, "Is that a banana in your pocket or are you just pleased to see me?" In this case, the answers are yes and yes. Obviously I have a vested interest in the consumption of said fruit!
