Remember these babies?
Some of my fondest memories of my summer research trip to Kew three years ago revolve around the fresh fruit ‘n’ veg stall at Richmond Farmers’ Market, which was run by this barmy and slightly despotic European chap (never did work out where from. I’m useless at accents).
Also barmy and possibly despotic, but in the nicest possible minor-public-school English-treasure way, Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall just evoked all sorts of memories of that summer and its fruits with this column devoted to tomatoes.
Mmmmmmm….
