There was an excited buzz around the school hall. The headmistress was pleased- the harvest festival assembly was in full swing and wasn’t usually enjoyed this much.
The children that had remembered had all brought in some baked beans for the local food bank. Teachers had brought vegetables to give the display a more traditional feel.
Amongst the veg was an unfortunate looking potato. Naturally enough children spotted it and passed on ‘Bum Spud’ quick enough for the whole school to be giggling: it was this that was making the children smile rather than the bountiful harvest of tinned beans.

Hehe! I love rude veg! I’ve seen rude carrots and parsnips, but a bum spud I have yet to see, and look forward to so doing. Maybe one of the Wonky packs might reveal the odd rear end! (I doubt we’ll find it in Waitrose though.... oh no! .... but if by any chance I do, it will of course be drabbled!)
