When we opened our front door this morning we stumbled over a bag of oranges and one of lemons.

There are no citrus fruit trees left around us now and we don't know anyone with trees.

Well says El Presidente, never look a gift horse in the mouth, so we took them inside and went off to do some shopping.

When we got back...............there was a bag of oranges and another of lemons by our door, ahhhhh himself says, we have a very prolific gift horse.

We thought we'd have a dip in our Communal pool and when we returned there was a bag of oranges and another of lemons by our door.....................some gift horse!!

After dinner we went to our local to do the quiz and when we returned.........................YES...............there was a bag of oranges and another of lemons !!! AND a note which said ' Gracias Mr Presidente, you do good for us'.

See........................there is a good side to living with the Presidente after all.................................................................urmmmmmmmmdoes anyone have any ideas for 52 oranges and 47 lemons?????

Answers on a postcard please and rude ones will be ignored !!!

Or......juice the oranges and make lots of lemonade.
Then there's lemon pancakes, lemon meringues, and orange cake and lemon cake.
A little more ambitioun gets you orange or lemon souffles and mousses.
But best of all, is a thick slice of lemon in a generous measure of gin,served in a tall glass topped up with ice cubes and a splash of tonic water. Deeeeeeeeeeeeeeeelicious!

Now if these gifts were sprats and mackeral, I would say this is very fishy.........but seeing as it's just fruit, I think someone is getting very fruity with El Presidente! You could start bottling them for the future....or chuck em over the balcony!
