#103 (extract) “John, John, John! Come and have a look at this. Its a miracle!” John swivelled his wheelchair around and powered across to where I was standing in the front yard. “Can you see anything?” I asked, puffed out with pride. John looked around shaking his head. “Nope, not a dicky bird. All I can see is an empty sardine tin crawling with ants and a binbag with its guts spilled out. Wheres the miracle?” “Look closer,” I said, “its in one of the window boxes.” John peered in, his eyes scanning over the foliage of the boxes. And then he saw it too. Halfway up one of the tomato plants, shying behind leaf and stalk, was a small green ball no bigger than a peanut - a real live baby tomato. “You see, the world does still work,” I said turning to John, “its the people who have all gone rotten.”
