Mendezie

Mendezie may or may not be the swahili word for banana; i must check.
It was also used as a name by two jugglers who by chance or fate gave their first TV performance in a converted former banana wharehouse in East London.
I use it this morning because my friend Dave has a google alert out on the word and i think he desrves a surprise.
Hi Dave; hope all is well though there is not a great deal to report here. The newspapers are full of the story from Lille where a marriage has been anulled as one of the two lied about their virginity. Weird world.
Meanwhile this evening in Toulouse the French football team play a friendly in preparation for the upcoming Euro competition against Paraguay.
And in Paraguay there are trees with.......bananas.
