Locals have been left baffled by a prankster who has left a plate of peeled bananas on their street every month for more than a year.
The fruity joker leaves up to 20 bananas at the corner of Abbey Road and Wensor Avenue in Beeston, Notts.
Residents say the fruit is left at the exact same spot on the 2nd of every month – with the mystery going back more than a year.
Fed-up locals have now printed a polite notice asking the mystery banana dropper to stop the bizarre monthly ritual.
The note, which has been placed next to the road signs where the bunches of bananas are left, reads: “Please, respectfully, no more bananas!!
“The uncollected plates and rotting bananas leave such a mess!
“Wishing a Happy New Year to you all!”
Resident Clare Short said: “I’ve asked around in the local community but no one really knows and no-one can tell me anything.
“The bananas appear early in the morning on the second of the month, I see them on my way to work. I’d love to know the answers to this.
“I’ve come to take the signs down because I don’t really want to make it like a feud, I don’t want it to
become a big thing.
“I think it’s a special thing for someone and I wish them well.
