Just got back from the garden centre where we went to buy some soft fruit,

I asked the young lad there where did they keep the red and white
currants. He gave me a funny kind of look and said, "Well I know we've got
some red currants and a few white ones too, but I'm pretty sure that we've
sold out of the red and white variety."

I immediately thought he was taking the p... but then realized I should
have been clearer in my request.

Not so daft maybe, I am sure I have heard of both grafted to one bush. Or
was that apples and pears, and no I don't mean stairs.
