Anyone interested in a fun only quiz? I actually nicked it off my mother in law who is president of the local WI.
Wild and Garden Flowers.


  1. Centre of the eye.
  1. Cissy boy.
  2. Pale red.
  1. Bovine fall.
  1. Prudish miss.
  1. Medieval torture.
  1. Snog in a fog.
  1. Keeps your mouth from fraying at the edges.
  1. Soft jungle king.
  1. Wont dance
Just for fun and an E-pint to the winner.

(can't get it to correct the numbers, just number 1-10)
I'd rather be an Optimist and be proved wrong than a Pessimist and be proved right.
