Fruit Identification

[KASM]

Can anyone name this fruit? a colleague from work has grown it in his garden and I've thus far failed to identify it. It's not a quince, baby melon or pumpkin.

Open it up you can tell by the seeds or take a bite.

I've only got this photo to help identify it.

Looks like some kind of Squash to me

Definitely a cucumber, my mum grows them.
They're ok to eat, not as nice as the ones you get in the supermarket as they are less juicy and the seeds are quite large.

Don't know what it is but that lawn looks amazingly good.

It's an orange. Although, having said that, the settings on my pc could do with adjusting.

Am I the only person here who's never heard of a Lemon Cucumber before?
