Growstertrucks Inc. do a lot of the carrying, and Mrs Growster is just seen in one of the pics, where the toms are finally inspected!

Mmmm. Growstertrucks Inc. The name rings a faint bell with me, er, something to do with money laundering using  an off-shore account somewhere in the Caribbean and a Swiss bank that later went bust? I'll ring Angela Snow and see if she can shed more light on the matter.

I thought I'd got away with it, Goosey!

I just cannot understand why our seventeen thousand acres of San Marzano weren't picked up on Google Earth!

But the money is now safe in our GrowsterGrowsth 8% Bonds for 6 years...

Only 8% and over 6 years? Pfft! I'm getting 8.5% over 4 years with my GGgrowsalot BIGA bond which means when I cash mine in it'll be worth more then than yours will be two years later after. If you want to transfer yours over to mine just let me know and I can sort it out for you at a suitable and friendly mate's rate for the old chum that you are.

Right, you're on!

Tomato futures are the new investment! Our seventeen thousand acres of San Marzano within 4Years perpetuates to a return of the same as yours, but with an increased formality exchange at the contango day!

I reckon between us, we could wipe the floor with the profit from Heinz and invest in a souper bond paying at least 11% on Sodden Plickney scale (see Blene site and comment)!

Ah - now you're talking! Tomato soup is not what it used to was, so we need to find a reputable chef who wants to make a name for himself and come up with a souper recipe, the contents of which must remain a secret between the three of us. Any ideas?

Hello Mrs B and welcome to our new foodie adventure. We need to think of a name so any suggestions will be more than welcome.

How about a play on the old song...

"You say 'Tomayto', I say 'Tomato', then everyone will answer that it's not 'tomayto' it's tomaaaato', and already, you have an audience, and potentially a sale of several hundred gallons of the stuff!

Is your kitchen big enough, Mrs B?

Goosey, Board meting at 'the Bells', 6.00pm sharp!

Hell's Bells! I'd better stop hoovering whilst waiting for my emulsion paint to dry or you'll both beat me to it and I'll have to pay for another round before I've had my first slurp. Tomaytos sounds good but maybe a more souped-up version might be more catchy do you think?
