Reminds me of the old joke where a guy continually fails to get his tomatoes to turn red whatever he does . As a last resort he asks his neighbour who is a keen gardener what he can do . The lady says that he needs to strip off completely and simply stand in front of the tomatoes and for sure that will make them go red , so he tries it for the next week , sadly nothing happens he is again left with green tomatoes . He bumps into the lady a few days later and tells her he tried her suggestion but to no avail . The lady says " Well that's really strange , when I do it I never have any such problems with my cucumbers"
