More Fruits et Legumes!


Sunday was another glorious day with lots more fruit and vegetables on show. A light shower of rain earlier in the morning had refreshed everything and it all looked tremendous. The missing fruit was indeed strawberries and cherries as seen in picture above. The birds would have had a wonderful midnight feast if they had been displayed the day before n'est-ce pas?




Look Mummy a fruit and veg scarecrow - trés different!

A room with a view!


Photographer taking a break - you can get too much fruit and veg. However, couldn't help taking lots more close ups for you all to admire.


Yep, there's always one! Standing on the pavement like everyone else was not good enough for this Monsieur. His lens is big enough!! Yeah, go on Madame you tell him to stop sitting on your melons!!

Do you know your onions!


C'est trés joli.










So bananas do grow on trees after all!





Interesting headgear.


A little carrot top!

Shall we dance.



Do I have too?


More crazy, colourful fruit & veg hats..watch out for those birds!!



Just so cute and colourful!



Then it's all over and the display is pulled down. Fruit & veg placed into boxes and sold for 10 euros. Proceeds to a cancer charity.







During the afternoon there were several fruity competitions. See what you can make out of a melon, cucumber, carrots, tomatoes and strawberries.



An interesting take on the 1970's hedgehog!


Needless to say these were the winners. Congrats to Carcassonne! Yes, I can see you all rushing off to see what you can make. Le Papillon c'est magnifique!

Okay, so who ate the E!

A strong armed Madame. She was first in the queue!
