The Whole World in a Hazelnut

Once again, the Julian obsessives have cocked up over timing.  Oooh let's have a Julian ceremony and have hazelnuts, they say.  Then they organise it in July, when all the hazelnuts are still tiny and green and definitely not to be picked.
So not to be stopped they go to Waitrose and get a packet of shelled hazelnuts.  It's not really the same, is it?  And they hand out one everybody associated with the Occasion.  

But the odd thing was, just as Elbreth was going into anaphylactic shock due to her allergy, somebody saw Princess Diana's face in a shelled hazelnut.  A second miracle in one day!  How blessed are we?
