  • No, I don't think so. Not unless the wind in in the East.

    And you've got a parachute with you.
  • Wind? It's got nothing to do with wind! They proved that in 1978. I'm surprised you din't know that, PM, what with your experience.
  • Wind goes with cabbage and baked beans, not parachutes.
  • Ah, but the '83 current study cast serious doubt on the '78 findings, Liz. And Rogers was found to have falsified records he'd submitted to D.C.T.E.E and other organisations.
  • Has anyone an opinion, or better still, firm information, on the fluctuation of shallot prices in Lithuania?
  • It's all to do with how many banjo players have secreted HobNobs in the privets.
  • Privets! Hobnobs! I heard it was laurel and chocolate digestives...

    Rogers? But he was a catholic priest as well as the foremost expert! He donated his fee to found a local home for cats burned by offertory candles!
  • Is that Roger the lodger the sod?

    Or someone entirely different?
  • The shallot price fluctuation can be linked to the garlic harvest. Lukas Astrauskas would know more about it than Roger.
  • Pataks are thought to have invested heavily in Garlic futures to facilitate Garlic Pickle production, going forward, (as they say), potentially creating garlic famine.

    Roger won't like that

    The further north you go in Italy the less sing-song and musical the accent. They say that was caused by the garlic famine. Right in the north they practically speak German, that's how bad it was there.
  • Well, you only have to look at Yorkshire: the lack of garlic, and the trend for rhubarb in its stead, has had a profound effect on people from all Ridings.
  • The wind issue...
  • The North wind issue...

    The Windrush issue...
  • Dora comes from up north. Just saying. Quite north, anyway. Much norther than here.
  • Ha ha ha

    Is you roight abate thaaaa?
  • Well. You know, it's practically Scotland. Compared to here.
  • Oh. You mean where I am now

    Not where I first felt the sod of this earth
  • Why are there some threads on this forum that I just do not understand?

    Do I have to qualify by four-plus years membership like some of you?

    I think to save myself, I am NEVER going north!! ^#(^
  • Never say never

    You wd miss out on a lot if u never went north

    I have been to all four corners of the Uk but still have much to discover I alm sure

    Save yourself while you can...

    I were born up there in the land of the satanic mills. Well, Preston, any road. Never touched a clove of garlic in me life till I came south.

    (You have to cast off the anchors, PET - let yourself go with the wind!)

  • dora lets go with the wind.
  • To, too, two

    there, their, they're & thare (bible)

    The English language is very confusing.
  • Confusing, bemusing, and often amusing.
  • Do, do, do, dah,dah, dah - Sting said that. He's a northerner, tha' knows.
  • I have just let one go t'is true TN
  • How else will it learn to stand on its own two feet?
  • The wind moves in mysterious ways. Not sure it's tethered by feet.
  • What's not to understand, PET ?

    The answer is blowing in the wind.

    If you are still confused, ask Roger
  • But Roger doesn't know about the garlic - do keep up.
  • He does know about the wind though- surely he can smell it in the wind?
  • Roger doesn't actually like garlic, or so I'm told, so that is completely irrelevant, Claudia. Please don't create difficulties that do not exist.
