Silly how something trivial can trigger a memory. I just finished watching Woody Allen's brilliant "Hannah and her sisters" and looked at the banana on the table and BAM.
I'm back in 1994, on a school trip to London. We visit the old Wembley stadium and were given a lunch box with among other things a banana in it. We had a group picture taken right outside the soccer stadium and I remember vividly being in a silly mood and placed the banana in front of my crotch. My friend and class mate Erik saw me, laughing and imitated me.
Back at school we checked the pic and sure enough you could see us standing there with a banana in front of our crotches. Perhaps no one else realized what we did on the pic since a group pic obviously doesn't show much detail per person.
Either way, juveline fun is the best. Cheers to Erik (where ever he may be) for joining in.
