On a roll with a lemon...


Well, I'm on a roll with the 'Men at Work' theme. Here you see a man whose job it is to walk around the massive displays at the Fête du Citron replacing any lemons or oranges that are showing signs of rotting. Along with several other workers, he checks the ground displays, the statues and the 'chars' - or floats. The Lemon Festival has drawn 27,000 spectators so far this year.

  8. What do they do with the lemons after the show? If they are not pierced, imagine the amount of lemoneade they make.
