Unfortunately, Hendrik makes far too many weird schnapps and his mind is addled - definately a plum!Hendrik wrote:no no, it is definitely an apple. this came up when the forum was new, and all then agreed it was an apple.Great Plum wrote:no, it's a plum!
The Great Plum thing comes from uni - instead of calling people a 'f***ing t**t' I'd call them a great plum - normally when drunk and for no perceptible reason!
The name then rebounded on me and for some reason it's my name on the net!

You could not find a more plummy picture of a plum for Great Plum's avatar. Apples? Get a grip, you prunes. Shape, colour, shininess, not to mention the absolute plumminess of the thing.
