Dear Editor,

On Friday, May 23, 2008, my wife asked me to go into our kitchen garden and dig out two sweet potatoes to boil for the children. I went into the garden and dug for just five minutes with my cutlass (somebody stole my fork last year November) and reaped about fifteen pounds of sweet potatoes within that short space of time.

Mr Editor, I ate sweet potatoes for breakfast, lunch and dinner all weekend! I even gave away about six pounds to fellow teachers at school……
