At this time of year, leave marrows on doorsteps under cover of darkness

You realize this was the cause of the infamous 'Boston Marrow Party' when colonials angered by the injustice of King George sending all his excess marrows to the New World dressed up as cockney greengrocers and pitched the marrows into Boston Harbour.

YOu wouldn't want to repeat history now, would you?
