Addicted To Spuds

Sam - the Korean teenager I help with English each week - has a hobby.

Most teenagers are into girls, music and trying to look old. Sam might be into those things too, but as well as all that, he has a far more altruistic pastime.

He's nursing a potato back to life.

Below is a picure I took of the little fella on June the 5th this year. Mr Potato appears to be extending a cautious shoot into the world, but he still has alot of ground to make up before catching up with Mr Carrot-Top next to him.
