Well done.... but this is definitely a Snoopy rather than the Saint Nick virgin... can you find the Red Baron as well would make a great pair. marleneg (71

) 10:48 pm, Wed 24 Oct

Hi...Yes i do believe in Lemon Aid and thanks for not taking the pith. ;-) 10:57 pm, Wed 24 Oct

looks more like the Mona Lisa to me - surely this means its even more valuable than what pulsejunkie suggested? Maybe you should contact the Louvre? nathanbarlow (6

) 2:23 am, Thu 25 Oct

Yes, now that you come to mention it, it does look a bit like the Mona Lisa, and I think I can make out a small smile on her face. Obviously this is a very rare, and collectible Citrus. Im sure the Louvre will be interested in this lemon ;-) 9:35 am, Thu 25 Oct

it seems u must have a good garden hand , if i win , could i possibly get a bag of lemons, goes great on fish , and 2 bags of strawberries, my partner loves them, i do wonder if they will taste better , due to there religious prowess , thanks , delivery to palmerston nth pls , slammin (155

) 7:38 am, Thu 25 Oct

I do have a green thumb, and naturally curly teeth. I'm sure they will taste Divine. Delivery to Palmerston Nth is no problem. I will of course include the lemon and the red baron in your order. Can I interest you in Laurence Of Asparagus complete with a Camel? 9:45 am, Thu 25 Oct

I met a virgin once who was a real lemon.... kere (92

) 8:43 am, Thu 25 Oct

Ha ha ha I like that. I hope that experience didn't leave you bitter. Cheers 9:48 am, Thu 25 Oct

I think it looks more like the mona lisa dylanjr (73

) 9:43 am, Thu 25 Oct

I shall add your vote for the Mona Lisa. Cheers 9:54 am, Thu 25 Oct

I agree Mona Lisa with breast implants. Fantastic. philhendo (0

) 10:00 am, Thu 25 Oct

Yes, my hubby noticed that as well ;-) 10:06 am, Thu 25 Oct

Looks more like an image from Sports Illustrated's Swimwear calendar to me, but hey, it will go great with my Woody Allen carrot and Robert Muldoon commemorative potato. Cheers. jophil2 (180

) 10:01 am, Thu 25 Oct

You will be interested in the Laurence of Asparagus that i have as well. Cheers 10:07 am, Thu 25 Oct

that strawberry looks so like Rob Muldoon! are you selling that too? Mary imacsimum (494

) 10:07 am, Thu 25 Oct

Yes it does look like Rob Muldoon. A wonderful addition to any kiwiana collection. I am open to all offers. I will sell them as a Pear, or separately. Cheers 10:11 am, Thu 25 Oct

I hope the other person with a religious auction dont get all bitter about this. Good on you for raising money for something other than your own pocket precious.cat (113

) 12:20 pm, Thu 25 Oct

Thanks. I do hope the other religious auction doesnt get bitter, or gets the pip with this auction. Anyway, when life deals one a lemon, make lemon aid. I want Gladys to recieve some kindness, as she gave it so willingly. Cheers 12:28 pm, Thu 25 Oct

Definitely the Mona Lisa--that's what I thought before I saw the comment :) grjj (37

) 1:11 pm, Thu 25 Oct

okie Dokie, the votes are mounting in favour of the Mona Lisa. Mind you....I don't recall either the Mona Lisa or the virgin mary being so well en dowered in the bust department. 1:21 pm, Thu 25 Oct

Hi, I have heard the just form this divine fruit can cure acne, assist weight loss, reverse male patten baldness and stop cut bananas from browning in a fruit salad, can you please confirm. jomomomo (70

) 1:38 pm, Thu 25 Oct

Yes...as i understand it, this divine fruit can do all of the above, and it smells nice too. Cheers 1:43 pm, Thu 25 Oct

Hi, I have heard the juice from this divine fruit can cure acne, assist weight loss, reverse male patten baldness and stop cut bananas from browning in a fruit salad, can you please confirm. jomomomo (70

) 1:40 pm, Thu 25 Oct

There is one you forgot to mention, the juice can also be used for secret messages. You just write with the juice and then run a warm iron over the message and it shows up. See if you can read this secret message........................did you get that ;-) 1:47 pm, Thu 25 Oct

Laurence of Asparagus huh? Can you post a piccy? It would certainly add an exotic flavour to my collection. jophil2 (180

) 2:01 pm, Thu 25 Oct

Hi there, I shall post a piccy of Laurence of Asparagus tonight. Hubby has the camera with him at the mo. Cheers 4:17 pm, Thu 25 Oct

Hmmm I dunno, it looks more like Patrick from Sponge Bob to me..... crunchie3 (217

) 2:17 pm, Thu 25 Oct

My boys agree with you 100% they can even see a crabby patty. Cheers 4:18 pm, Thu 25 Oct

Hey, good stuff. I got ripped off by a friend recently and left with a $900 phone bill. I bet it means the world to Gladys to know there are people like you out there who still care - Keep it up! harlicat (164

) 3:52 pm, Thu 25 Oct

Thank you, But Im not doing anymore then many folk on TM who are helping Gladys. Im sorry to hear that happened to you.Your friend will one day find out, what goes around, comes around. I wish you all the best. 4:22 pm, Thu 25 Oct

I hope this is for real and your reasons are genuine From Robin clancarlin (4

) 4:14 pm, Thu 25 Oct

Pardon, I thought the auction states quiet clearly what this auction is about, and who it is for. If is doubt check page 35 of this thread on the message boards. http://www.trademe.co.nz/Community/MessageBoard/Messages.aspx?id=21039763&p=35&c=1 4:25 pm, Thu 25 Oct

GOOD ON YOU SMOOCHER!!!!!!!...you're a legend LOL....here's hoping that this is a fun auction and people spend up large on it. Gladys is a honey who deserves all the money she can get :) kizmc (1353

) 4:19 pm, Thu 25 Oct

I couldn't agree more about Gladys. Thanks for that. I'm enjoying all the great people who are adding comments, and I love the funny questions. Cheers 4:27 pm, Thu 25 Oct

looks like a bad lemon to me lorry11 (2411

) 4:26 pm, Thu 25 Oct

Nah, the red-faced one is Trevor & the bitter one is his boss Helen! Has she signed it?? adne (0

Seller Comment: Photos now added. Laurence of Asparagus and The Kumra. Cheers 6:15 pm, Thu 25 Oct

I think it's William Shakespeare on the lemon. I wonder if this fruit is a comedy or a tragedy? jdnz (86

) 6:31 pm, Thu 25 Oct

The remarkable thing about Shakespeare is that he is really very good - in spite of all the people who say he is very good. Robert Graves Quote (1895 - 1985) Cheers ;-) 7:04 pm, Thu 25 Oct

if this lemon was a vehicle do you think it would be a ford ? amy57 (130

) 6:55 pm, Thu 25 Oct

Ha ha ha. Ummmm I think a Lada would be the biggest Lemon. cheers 7:05 pm, Thu 25 Oct

What a wonderful idea this is. It certainly meets my acid test. I hope Gladys finds it gives her back her zest. kiwimac (304

) 7:22 pm, Thu 25 Oct

Well done!!! Very Clever. I hope its puts a bit of zest into everyone. Toodles. 11:40 pm, Thu 25 Oct

can you confirm, is the persona in the picture naked??.. or is it just the way Im looking... lol. mussel (60

) 8:01 pm, Thu 25 Oct

No, I don't see the persona clothed either. A nude Madonna me thinks. lol Hubby thinks it may be Venus de Milo as he cant see any arms.lol 11:44 pm, Thu 25 Oct

Does it come with an Aardvark? rocket88 (189

) 8:20 pm, Thu 25 Oct

I'm sorry The South American Iwi wont let us have one. They fall into the Forshore and ugly animals act. Cheers 11:46 pm, Thu 25 Oct

Love the kumera, he reminds me of a guy I used to work with (great chap). Although I suspect the hair is not natural, I reckon he's wearing a rug ;-) racingjellies (80

) 8:29 pm, Thu 25 Oct

SSSSHHHHH he can hear you. Hes very self conscious ;-) 11:48 pm, Thu 25 Oct

Is that kumara where Michael Jackson left one of his faces?????????? apcn (247

) 8:59 pm, Thu 25 Oct

No....this kumra has a nose, and i cannot see a chimpanzee anywhere. Mind you, i do believe this kumra has a high voice, and clutches its privets when it sings. 11:51 pm, Thu 25 Oct

Your lemon looks pretty pucka to me! Well done you. As an aside, don't you think your kumara bears a striking resemblance to Ma'a Nonu? vegaman (35

) 9:00 pm, Thu 25 Oct

Yes it does look like Ma'a Nonu. Altho this kumra hasnt lost a cup yet. Cheers 11:54 pm, Thu 25 Oct

I never ever dreamed of wanting to buy a lemon so bad. thetron (179

) 10:09 pm, Thu 25 Oct

I never dreamed I'd want to sell a lemon so bad, or that there would be a queue to buy a lemon. lol 11:57 pm, Thu 25 Oct

would you consider selling the strawberry separately? sailorscout (42

) 10:23 pm, Thu 25 Oct

Yes I would consider selling the strawberry separately, altho to wrench him away from the only family he has ever knowen (even though it is weird and disfunctional) seems cruel, and this question puts me in a bit of a jam. But as it is for Gladys he is happy to go. 12:02 am, Fri 26 Oct

I must congratulate you on your puplic spritedness. :-)Love your Lawence of Asparegas too. At least you're letting the market decide it's true value and giving all the proceeds to a very good cause as opposed to what that greedy womann with the pebble is doing. Why she thinks her artifact is worth $70,000 is beyond me. Good luck. :-) kiwibeca (28

) 1:01 am, Fri 26 Oct

Thanks you. Its great to see people are having fun with this. I myself have a soft spot for Laurence of Asparagus. Mind you, dressing up a piece of Asparagus is kinda tricky ;-) 7:59 am, Fri 26 Oct

I would recommend any potential buyer of this lemon to be cautious & first do a lemoncheck at www.lemoncheck.co.nz oceania (92

) 10:00 am, Fri 26 Oct

I can assure bidders that I have checked this site for, stolen Lemons,(this lemon has been in my backyard since it was a flower bud) security interests (money owing),( Neither I nor anyone in this branch of the family tree owe money on this Lemon) adverse accident history,(The said Lemon did fall from the tree, but there is no structural damage) ownership history,( One careful Lady Owner) odometer history (I cant find the odometer, or the radio). Thanks for the link. Bidders have a looksee. 10:24 am, Fri 26 Oct

I know the perfect way to dress an asparagas - hollandaise sauce made with lemon juice. jophil2 (180

) 10:34 am, Fri 26 Oct

I could not agree more. I have several of Laurence's kin folk, sitting quietly in the fridge, and a couple of Marys rellys in the fruit bowl, just waiting to be used that exact way for tonights dinner ;-) 10:40 am, Fri 26 Oct

I just wanted to ask, How are you Peeling? http://www.scholastic.com/titles/peeling/ http://www.amazon.com/gp/reader/0439104319/ref=sib_dp_pt/105-6880185-7069223#reader-link jomomomo (70

) 11:40 am, Fri 26 Oct

H ha ha well done, Im peeling well, hope you are too. I know this auction has taught me one thing, and its that its great fun to play with your food. Thanks for the link. cheers. 12:44 pm, Fri 26 Oct

My vote goes to Mona Lisa ... mind you I thought she had more subtlety than to flash her boobies on a lemon or any other substrate for that matter... BTW I was thinking of donating an apple and auctioning it, but I was a bit worried about 'in-cider trading' rules... robarsystems (26

) 1:31 pm, Fri 26 Oct

Right, I'm adding you to the Mona Lisa list. Maybe thats why the Mona Lisa has that strange smile, as she was thinking about flashing her boobies. According to the firm G Smith, R Gala and Braburn, in-cider trading is at the core of corruption, and it only takes one bad apple. Cheers 3:05 pm, Fri 26 Oct

Hi from The Nederlands! I am VERY excited about your kumara! It looks like the inspiration for "The Scream"- the famous painting. Wow, you have a very vonderful find here! How much Euros will you sell it for? From Dr Kumerstien, Prof of Art, Nederlands deb.j.w. (127

) 3:33 pm, Fri 26 Oct

Well hello there. You may have a fight on your hands to buy the Kumra, as i have another Euro Dr interested in both the Kumra and the blessed Lemon. His name is Dr Ripanippleoff and he seems very excited. 4:15 pm, Fri 26 Oct

Hi there. I need to know what the diameter is? If I'm the winning bidder I'd like to send Queen Mary back to God with my potato gun. Hopefully she's about 50mm around the waist then I should be able to get her about 250 metres closer to heaven. If not the silly price I'm prepared to bid is going to a good cause anyway... Cheers. testntools (7478

) 6:52 pm, Fri 26 Oct

Hi there, she measures 9cm tall and has a circumference of 20cms, so you may have to give her a good squeeze to get her in the potato gun. If you stand on a mountain, you may be able to fling her even closer to God. I would love to see the lemon fly. VIRGIN AIR. cheers. 8:41 pm, Fri 26 Oct

If I win it can I throw it at the woman selling the stone, she needs it. rcmikey (92

) 7:23 pm, Fri 26 Oct

If you win, i shall send you all the fruit and veges on the auction. That should give you a fair amount to hurl at who ever you choose. The question above may interest you, as they have a spud gun ;-) 8:46 pm, Fri 26 Oct

Ouch!! I zink you are not taking me serioriously! It is a great natural work of ART! Prof Kumerstein deb.j.w. (127

) 7:35 pm, Fri 26 Oct

Vee ask zee questions ;-) It tiz a vondebar peas of Art. I vill sell ze kumra. Dankeshane 8:55 pm, Fri 26 Oct

Luv the lemon, but at the risk of sounding rather sour, the kumara looks like my ex-husband except the kumara is much better looking and I'm not just buttering him up. wendlz (69

) 7:39 pm, Fri 26 Oct

Poor you, but count yourself lucky, because my ex-husband looks like the strawberry, and I am resisting the urge to pulp it. ;-) 9:01 pm, Fri 26 Oct

This is not a genuine Virgin Mary, the real ones exposing her breasts came in limited numbers and were only on Pears! However authorised copies made of silicone do pop up occasionally. A limited variation showing her Navel was only available on one type of orange. I think you may be taking the pith!!! lazib (73

) 7:53 pm, Fri 26 Oct

Taking the pith...moi.... You seem to think this is a faux madonna. She is the true McCoy of the holy citrus. I do wonder how she remains a virgin with all the breast, and navel flashing. Im kinda relieved the image wasnt on a Cox's Orange ;-) 9:21 pm, Fri 26 Oct

That lemon looks nothing like the Virgin Mary, but it does look like the Mona Lisa, I kidd you not. harvey379 (18

) 8:10 pm, Fri 26 Oct

Ok I shall put your vote in the growing number who see the Mona Lisa. Cheers 9:23 pm, Fri 26 Oct

Thats not an image...Its rotten tarnz13 (362

Nope not rotton, but it may have verrucosis (also known as citrus scab) Cheers 10:08 pm, Fri 26 Oct

Hells bells, dont think I want to try and say "virgin maori mary" after a few wines. Cheers 12:11 am, Sat 27 Oct

Thats one big rrrrrs planet. Very impressive. Can you see it moon with the naked eye? If Martians come from Mars, and Venusians come from Venus, what comes from Uranus?????? ;-) 5:38 pm, Sat 27 Oct

Sorry the lemon's gone beyond my budget. I have made a donation to Mrs Carlin's appeal fund though. :-) kiwibeca (28

how did the lemon go to Uranus? ;-) poriruadude (34

I think it was a Klingon. ;-) 6:18 pm, Sat 27 Oct

so, this auction has been about, Mona lisa, Virgin mary, Venus, Uranus and klingons? hmmmmmm... poriruadude (34

) 6:20 pm, Sat 27 Oct

Its a bit like a magic eye picture, you just squint...let your eyes go out of focus...poke your tongue out of the side of your mouth.....and you can see what ever takes your fancy....Failing that...just have some Tequila Slamers....it creates the same affect. 6:27 pm, Sat 27 Oct

Maybe a punt of Absinthe will get me there!... yup, i deffinitly see a lady with nice hips and breast with no arms. YUP, venus :-) poriruadude (34

Tis a pity its a lemon and not a lime, as then you may well have seen the Green Fairy. I shall pop your vote into the Venus camp. Cheers 6:39 pm, Sat 27 Oct

Hey you are selling yourself short buy about $36,040 - auction #124098849 has a Virgin Mary on a pebble thats currently at $36,200.00 - your lemons about 60 times bigger.... this means your lemon is worth about $2.1 million since the image is proportinately bigger... rapid200sx (862

) 9:47 pm, Sat 27 Oct

Absolutely right, and anyone can see the image on the lemon with out the aid of a magnifying glass or an Electron Microscope. Please feel free to place a HUGE bid. ;-) 9:59 pm, Sat 27 Oct

Have you asked the pebble owner if they want to do a joint auction and split the profits 50/50, after all some religous person might want a pebble for one hand and a blessed lemon for the other.... rapid200sx (862

) 10:05 pm, Sat 27 Oct

I had not thought of that. I'm sure she is aware of the charitable auctions that are running at the moment, and if she would make a donation for Gladys that would be great. Cheers 10:13 pm, Sat 27 Oct

Heathrow Airport used to have a good system for carrying out virginity tests to make sure immigrant women were without child. Has this lemon passed one such test to prove authenticity? lotusbloom (34

) 4:49 pm, Sun 28 Oct

Sadly...this is a very unworldly Lemon, and it has to my knowledge, never travelled off shore. If you can tell me what the test involves, I'm sure I can get the Euro Dr Ripanippleoff to preform the procedure. I cannot take her to England, for fear of being savaged by one of our fruit detecting airport Beagles. Cheers. 8:54 pm, Sun 28 Oct

looks like someone has pissed on the lemon and left a damm stain.whats up with people selling rotten lemons and random pebbles on here. sicgsr (3

) 6:55 pm, Sun 28 Oct

As far as I know, no one here has tinkled on this lemon, so I dont what a pee stain would look like. Perhaps..... if you have tried this, you could post a pic and then we could all compare. 9:05 pm, Sun 28 Oct

Yeah, I agree it sure looks like Snoopy! jdb (108

Thank you, I shall put your vote into the Snoopy Pile. Cheers 9:06 pm, Sun 28 Oct

Do you have a twin, or is it an echo....Ok 2 votes for Snoopy. 9:07 pm, Sun 28 Oct

How do you get the virgin mary authenticated ? I have a tea towel with a stain that is reminiscent of the shroud of turin. When I stare at it, it seems to look like another virgin mary. Quite similar to yours, I must admit. srajan (149

) 7:34 pm, Sun 28 Oct

Thats proof itself.....The Lemon has showen you a sign. You must be one of the chosen ones. ;-) 9:13 pm, Sun 28 Oct

Yes and affordable. This is the everyday mans/womans miricle....with free postage no less. 10:49 pm, Sun 28 Oct

hey again, I'm the guy that suggested the mona lisa originally - anyways I came back to see how the bidding was going, and saw your kumera, clicked it and this scary face popped up on my screen!! It scared the living daylights out of me - its really freaky scary!!! maybe someone would want it for a horror/freak sideshow? nathanbarlow (6

) 9:03 am, Mon 29 Oct

It gives me the creeps too. I think it could star in a B grade horror movie no sweat. Perhaps...the haunting of Mr Potato Head......something along the lines of Chucky....but called Chippy...or the Exorchip. It might be useful on Halloween ;-) Cheers 9:15 am, Mon 29 Oct

I know a guy who might be keen. He squeezes lemons on his fingers for finger flappies. blair260275 (164

) 10:54 pm, Mon 29 Oct

Is a finger flappy anything like a falangee, or is it like a puppet, or in this case a luppet. Are finger flappies a disease or an affliction, if so, im sure this unique Lemon would aid your friend. Cheers 11:04 pm, Mon 29 Oct

Ok but before I make a donation, could you please let me know why Gladys from the FairGo programme needs donations? pbmsgirl (4208

) 11:37 pm, Mon 29 Oct

Yep sure can. Gladys is an elderly lady, who was talked into going guarantor on a $16,000.00 loan for a "friend" The person Gladys helped out, went bankrupt a couple of months later, and left Gladys with the loan to pay off to the finance company. WANTING INFORMATION? - See FAIR GO website.

) 10:04 am, Tue 30 Oct

Good thinking, as you will be buying a piece of kiwi history. As I am told there are the only fruit or veges on TM. I am open to all offers, or you can make a donation. Cheers for that. 10:14 am, Tue 30 Oct

This is one of the funniest things i have seen in ages. Three of us had a great laugh looking at this. Hope you raise some good money. hopmar (226

Hey thanks for that. Its been a laugh a minute. I think I may have fractured my brain thinking of answers to the very funny questions. Cheers 7:32 pm, Tue 30 Oct

Am I missing something??? What is it about all the 'Virgin Mary' items for sale? breckenridge1 (199

) 9:22 pm, Tue 30 Oct

Hi there breckenridge1. It all started with this auction 124098849. When I saw that auction, i thought well, thats verging on the ridiculous, why not have a bit of fun, and I will give the money raised to Gladys who was on Fair Go. I know about one other auction along the same lines that is raising money for the cancer foundation....as for the rest, I haven't a clue. Cheers 10:38 pm, Tue 30 Oct

this world is stuffed chihuahuanuts (101

) 9:25 pm, Tue 30 Oct

awwww chihuahuanuts do you really think so. Olives can be, also chickens, and noses, but not the whole world. By the way, love your name ;-) 10:47 pm, Tue 30 Oct

the person who buys this is sure getting a lemon. homan (783

) 10:14 pm, Tue 30 Oct

Yes they are, as well as being extremely generous to Gladys. The adds on T.V talk about veges being our friends, and the person who wins this auction gets a whole bunch of new friends, and my sincere heart felt thanks. I just realised if I had put one more item on the auction it would be the 5 plus a day for fruit and veges. Cheers 10:55 pm, Tue 30 Oct

are the bids on this serious? who would want a rotten lemon? chihuahuanuts (101

) 12:14 pm, Wed 31 Oct

I dont believe anyone wants the Lemon, but the bids are serious. This auction is to help raize money for Gladys who featured on Fair Go. Gladys is a pensonier, who helped out a "friend" and the friend then left Gladys with a huge debt. Gladys has almost lost her home becuase of this "friend". When I saw Fair Go, I thought it was such an awful thing to happen, soI thought I would see if I could help. I have never meet Gladys, but I couldnt help thinking....that could be my mum or nana. 12:23 pm, Wed 31 Oct

Seller Comment: To everyone who has supported this auction....thank you so much, it couldn't have happened without you. For those of you who have made a donation, thank you for your kindness and generosity, your a real gem.(blows kisses) To those who have contributed to the laughs on this auction, you have wicked senses of humour, and made this a real joy ;-) The wonderful people on TM made this a truly great auction, and you have all made a difference for Gladys. I wish you all the best.... smoocher xxx 12:37 pm, Wed 31 Oct

ok well its a good thing to raise money for chihuahuanuts (101

) 2:00 pm, Wed 31 Oct

Hey thanks.....see the world isnt all stuffed. You have a great day :-) 2:08 pm, Wed 31 Oct
