A rock you’ve got out of the garden

You put the rock on the table. "This grey blue stone," you tell them, "came from the hills that surround the holy city of Mecca. I think this proves my story without a doubt. And now, let us talk about a new expedition...."

The panel look at you in confusion.

"I thought you said it was grey-blue," says one of them. "You didn't even get the colour right."

"OK," you say. "I got it out the garden. But I did go to Mecca, honest"

The panel ask you to leave.
