I hate lettuce. I just don't see the point of it. I don't mind a bit of crunchy lettuce here and there, just a tad, say a small bit in a burger, or a small bit in a salad sandwich, but there's no room in life for more than a tiny leaf occasionally.

You have to buy it, then wash it, then dry it, then use it before it goes brown.


So, I don't buy it.

Getting through a whole lettuce is soul destroying.

Easy to dry with a salad spinner.

And any lettuce left over I just chuck into one of my eclectic stir-fries! :rotfl:

Lettuce is rabbit food. I don't have buck teeth and long ears so I don't eat lettuce :rotfl:

You're not a squirrel either, but I bet you eat nuts!

Actually, no

I love lettuce but grow all my own pretty much all year round. Have a 2x1m plot at the moment filled with all types. I just go out and put off a few leaves when I want them. If they bolt or the insects get them, I just dig up and put in the compost bin.

I like mushrooms too, but don't grow those.

I eat lots of nuts too, snack of choice.

But despite all this I rarely get my five a day!

If the goal's unreachable, move the goal posts.

You're going for the wrong five a day ..... try: sweeties, crisps, pie, biscuits and cake.

Just got back ... left the house, had a drive round/park up ... drive back, then straight out again, repeat.... been round Lidl ....

.... and there are still 2-3 out there in the pitch dark (there are no lights). I can't even see my shed, which is 20' away!

I remember reading there's a religion somewhere that bans the eating of lettuce (and the colour yellow).

I need a wireless battery controlled speaker, so I can place it in the relevant corner, so it can only be heard when in "nuisance distance"

If Max Bygraves doesn't do it, try Plainchant!

Ah, now I would but sweets, crisps, biscuits and cake have to be rare treats these days. Pie I had last night!
