Morning Eboney...have found in web site title talk of a new fruit named in honour of Martha Stewart and is called a Stinky Pinky. I cannot get in to the site and looking at the results of my search I don't think I will bother.If you search stinky pinky you will see what I mean!!!!!I'm not sure if the sites are taking the p**s or not.This info has probably made things worse...sorry... xx

I am none the wiser, can anyone explain it to me please?

I'm wondering if the answer is the child's name of a fictional rat such as Roland Rat/Ratty from Wind in the Willows - what do you think?
