This picture – taken shortly before I flew back to London – shows lemons growing by the garage around the back of Kerry’s house. They were left uncommented upon – no big deal – they grow all over the place, all over the world. But if you’re from less sunny climes, there’s still something miraculous about lemons just growing untended. As if it were perfectly normal! With no one saying, “Ooh! Lemons!” or taking any special interest whatsoever. As I took a photo of them, Kerry’s next door neighbour cycled around the corner and gave me a very peculiar look as if to say, “Why’s that guy taking pictures of lemons? That’s so lame.”
