<\/a><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Good morning everyone, and welcome to 10 April, 2024 \u2013\u00a0an important date in the history of balanced diets, as it was on this day in 1633 that, for the first time ever, bananas went on sale to the public in London.<\/p>\n The fruit went in display in the window of a herbalist shop owned by Thomas Johnson, on Snow Hill in the neighbourhood of Holborn, and they caused quite a sensation.<\/p>\n Johnson\u2019s bananas were in the window for two reasons\u00a0\u2013 firstly, because \u201choly crap, that\u2019s what a banana looks like!\u201d and because they\u2019d been carefully shipped all the way from Bermuda, in an unripened state, and needed time to ripen before people could eat them and not be completely grossed out.<\/p>\n It was a golden time for the residents of London, who \u2013 I suspect \u2013 had long been suffering from a lack of potassium in their diet, leading them to talk funny, refuse to bathe and generally be super-grumpy about everything.<\/p>\n The monkey population of London \u2013 admittedly, a tiny sub-sector of the community \u2013 no doubt welcomed the arrival of the unusual fruit, which meant they could finally indulge in their traditional cuisine, and stop relying on late night kebabs, cans of lager and the occasional explosively hot curry.<\/p>\n On an entirely unrelated note, though, I am delighted to inform you that the Stockhead team has been beavering away tirelessly, to bring you some excellent content to peruse before the market gets going today.<\/p>\n That includes Josh\u2019s dig into the broader world of things that get taken out of the ground and sold for loads of money<\/a>, and Cam\u2019s, er, dig into the broader world of things that get taken out of the ground and sold for loads of money<\/a>.<\/p>\n Plus, I\u2019ve been busy looking at charts and numbers and Twitter and stuff that Eddy wrote and I\u2019ve compiled a bunch of it here for you, because I like you and I\u2019d really like you to succeed.
