Heard about the most bizarre New Zealand custom yesterday. Only people in a country filled with sheep who have a prime minister with a name like John could have come up with this one.

Apparently, if you are single in New Zealand (and, I should imagine, not at all particular about your sexual conquests) you trawl the supermarkets with - please just listen to this - bananas in your trolley. People see your single-person-on-the-prowl bananas and sally forth to pick you up.

Opening lines probably include, 'Baaa baaa baaa. Wanna shag? Baaa baaa baaa.'
Not that I'm judging.

It gets even better. Possibly due to previous awkward, banana-related episodes, they've come up with a way to negotiate the tricky issue of sexual orientation. If you are heterosexual, please place your bananas into your trolley with the ends curving upwards. Jolly girls and boys, bananas curving down please.

I ask you...
