To position my banana and nectarines in a certain way just to bug a colleague?

[MamaG]

?

Nope, not unreasonable

Quite funny really

Am I right in assuming one banana and two nectarines?

Definitely not unreasonable.

Extrememly unreasonable. You should be ashamed of yourself

thats correct fortyplus. i was also going to include 3 grapes but bottled out of htat

YOu just know it's not a friendly smile you're making

3 grapes? [ponders] its been a while since i've had a hand in the fruit bowl, it must be said, but i am sure there's only ever a banana and a couple of nectarines??

Can't wait to hear about colleague's reaction when you actually eat the banana.

I have always peeled clementines in one piece - you start at one end, peel a strip round the cicumference nearly back to where you started, and this just leaves 2 round bits either side to peel out of the way - very neat.

Took me years to realise what shape it makes! (My kids think it looks like an elephant!)

bran - she's not going to eat it - she's just going to suck it!

mytwopenceworth - I'm lost on the grapes thing too??!

fortyplus, that depends on whether the colleague is male or female, if it's a male colleague then a big bite with bared teeth and a bit of a snarl will have him crossing his legs.

Think of the grapes being produced by the banana.

bran - or whack it with a hammer?

LOL at "grapes being produced by the banana."

Tell us more about the colleague and why this would be their just des(s)erts.

this could be construed as sexual harassment. if the colleague is a younger man and you're an office of predominantly velociraptor women.

I'd be overjoyed if my male colleagues walked about holding melons up to their chests whilst leering in my general direction.

its an older woman
a PITA whos a bit of a snob

That's very true...

We need to know why this person needs to be annoyed...

xp - not sexual harassment, then!

eeewwwwwww no!

shouldn't you be on your way to work 40?

can you not bring a cucumber and two apples in tomorrow

and then a marrow and two grapefruits

etc

work up the size

and then bring a chipolata and 2 raisins

freak her out

Not unreasonable, no. But you would be being a bit of a ...now, what was that word that someone's dd called her brother and she was shocked by and which I've been using ever since? Oh, yes, kn*bhead.
