Never did I think I would use the phrase - big pears a problem

A council's threatened to cut down several pear trees because of the risk posed by their unusually large falling fruit.

Council members say the trees grew fruit the size of cricket balls last year, but are now a hazard to residents of Islington in north London.

I’ve never had a problem with pear drops.

Do you think these people get to sleep at night for worrying……cos I don’t think they even get to bed.

They’re probably measuring the incline and height of each step on their staircase to see if they pose a risk to users.
