...This yam is like a bank...
James Rice:
'... it's like a national bank. When you put your money in there, the lump of money will stay there. When you want to draw it you just go and draw little by little and a whole lump of money will stay there. This yam is like that. When I want to dig it out, I just come and cut a little piece off from there and leave the whole to rest.'
