walshie 2,804 Posted February 1, 2016 Report Share Posted February 1, 2016 I'm learning all the time, but some things still amaze me. I always thought grapes grew on vines. Yesterday morning I found a load growing in a water filled ditch. Instead of being on separate stalks, they seemed to be clumped together. I pulled some out and they were very soft and slimy. They were clear and each one had a black centre. They were chewy and tasted of fish. Are these baby grapes that need to ripen, as peeling them as they are is a nightmare?

Blackbriar 8,569 Posted February 1, 2016 Report Share Posted February 1, 2016 (edited) Did you ever have tapioca for your school dinners ? What you've found there is the fruit of a mature tapioca plant, the favoured food of the elusive Northern Fan-tailed Water Rabbit (Urbania Imbecilicus) ! Very few have ever seen this extremely rare nocturnal creature, so 'praps you could sit up a few nights and try to get us a picture ? You'll need someone to help you, but this is what you do...... 1.Put your poison-proof gloves on. 2.Dig a big hole and half fill it with the fruit of the mature tapioca plant. 3.Get a stupid fat person to get into the hole, jump up and down and make a loud noise. 4.The other person should hide behind a tree and be as quiet as possible, almost as if they've gone to bed and left you to it ! 5.When the Water Rabbit comes to investigate, the other person pushes it into the hole. 6 Simple ! You might have to do this every night for a week or more, but good luck and let us know how you get on ! Edited February 1, 2016 by Blackbriar 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
