Kum-what?

Like many who work in clerical roles I am an obsessive list maker, but unlike most I have a tendency to collate my lists and file them. You just never know if a busybody in HR will start evaluating your job description. It hasn't happened yet and my Team Leader maintains that it takes a team of people to undertake job evaluation not someone with a vendetta but you can never be too careful. Hence I keep lists dating back to 1998. You just never know. So there I was on Friday, sat out in the park going through some lists I made in 2002. It was blazing hot and I was feeling a little woozy, almost ready to pack up and go home for a quiet five when I came across a very strange list which I sense has been planted. It read Friday 13th May 2002, must buy...feather pillow, Kumquat, ice pick, book about wire mother, thermal socks, become open, happy and attentive - relax!, Nickelback album on CD if poss. What I thought most strange wasn't the presence of the band best known for a sofa shop advert, it was the Kumquat. A well known local supermarket have only just opened their exotic fruit section, so where was the writer of the list hoping to buy such a rare citrus fruit a good ten years ago? Answers on a postcard please!
