A good year for smelly fruit

It may look delicious but this fruit's pungent smell makes it an acquired taste.

Durians, the so-called "king of the fruits", are something of a national obsession in Singapore.

And 2015 is shaping up to be a very good year for durian lovers, with a bumper crop in neighburing Malaysia.

That means prices are coming down and sales are going up-much to be delight of buyers and sellers alike.

That's it from me.

I'll leave you with today's words and phrases once again.
