Carrots Quote by Lou Sanders
“My stepdad makes me laugh constantly reading things out from the paper or getting worked up about a lady from a local group who won't answer the phone in enough ring time. Last time I went home - he was swearing at a bag of carrots. And quite rightly it turns out - they were the wrong type of carrots.”
