PAUL “IWAH” LEACOCK was on his land picking breadfruits one day recently when he got a twin surprise.

“I mostly sell breadfruits and whatever is in season. I was picking breadfruits with a stick and all of a sudden it drop and I see it was a twin, so I brought it here [to the NATION],” said the farmer who sells in Lower Green, Bridgetown.

“I had a twin before but it was green, but now I have another, a full one. This is very unusual, the first time I’ve seen a twin full one,” he added.

Leacock said the discovery was a “pleasant uncertainty”, as he did not know whether it was a good or bad omen.

Nevertheless, he said if he could not get it sold, it would end up in his oven. (CA)
