Hello Mrs, I will have to think of an appropriate name for you..I can see a Mrs Miggins..:rotfl:
I have a cunning little ferret AKA Mr.Bob, will that do as a plan?
I do have a chronicle amount of pain sometimes, but you really don't need to hear the history of my piles..:o Too much info i know... especially at this time in the morning..but it's those turnips, play havoc they do:rotfl: :rotfl:Blackadder: Am I jumping the gun, Baldrick, or are the words 'I have a cunning plan' marching with ill-deserved confidence in the direction of this conversation?
Still lurking around with a hope of some salvation:cool:0 -
When you talk turnips, are you actually talking rutabaga or swede?
See, in Canada, a turnip is a large yellow root veg (what you call swede here) and a turnip is a rutabaga...
Does that make sense?
Please clarifyEmpty pockets never held anyone back, only empty heads and empty hearts can do that -Peale0 -
We're British - so it's a rutabaga...

Well well, I never knew that was rutabaga. I'm from Liverpool, so that *is* a turnip to me. But down south, they call that a swede, and they call swedes turnips. I had to give up in the end, and accept the southern version of the names. But I'm really with you, Z. :rotfl:2023: the year I get to buy a car0

So there you go bunny - there's a north/south divide in the naming of turnips.
Perhaps we should call them neeps instead?"Follow the money!" - Deepthroat (AKA William Mark Felt Sr - Associate Director of the FBI)
