Melons!

So there I was on my way home from my last job of the day, coming down Pepper Hill on the A2 Eastbound, in my Mobi-tyre van when I saw a car pulled over on the hardshoulder with the driver clearly struggling to take his wheel.  I pulled over and offered to help.  I asked him if he had a good spare and if so i would be more than happy to change it over for him.  So I get all my kit out ready to swapo the wheels when I noticed....Melons!

His boot was full of them as was the back seat. Anyway, I finsihed changing the wheel, He was very very grateful.  I packed all my gear away and then I noticed a pile of 20 or so melons on the grass verge!  I offered to help him put them back in the boot. They must have weighed 7 or 8 kilos each! He was every so thankful... so much so he offered on to me. Well thats the most unusual tip I have ever had.  That was Friday, we've had melon for deserts three nights no and there still half of it left!
