Both lovely names, and names of plants.Thanks @DJC3. This one was a bit of an ordeal for mum but arrived safely at a very healthy 9Lbs 2 oz. Hazel Rosemary P the Rosemary was my mum's name so nice touch.
I actually know a Tulip and a Lettuce and there was a famous Christmas Day in my village. Never met a Ragwort - yet.Both lovely names, and names of plants.
It has always struck me as interesting that some plant names naturally make good people names (Ash, holly, rose, rowan, etc) but others would just seem odd (Beech, daffodil, snapdragon).
Is that what you say if you get a puncture @rhubarb73 ?Whereas in fact the very worst swearword is Kintyre. I very rarely use that one myself

Well I feel cheated now Goonergal...we never did the sugar cubes...perhaps that was the afternoon session when I as absent (with consent) I hasten to add...it really was the most awful course I have ever been to...a complete lack of understanding of how Type 2 can be managed...no alternative views explored...the 'eat well' plate reinforced...no testing...judgement of how we came to be diagnosed (self inflicted was the inference I took from that)...I laughed out loud at the sugar cube avoidance advise...seems appropriate & exceptionally good advice to me.

You see, I would use football teams and one originally from Woolwich would be the strongestIf I puncture all my wheels at the same time I add "Forfar" onto the front.
(I sense my first moderator ticking off may be imminent).

No...did they really pass the biscuits round...ughhh...can't believe I missed that tooYes, I think it was the afternoon - after they’d passed round the biscuits

That is a tragic mistake GG...but I have to see the funny side of it...or perhaps I should say ironic...honestly you couldn't make it up could you?...tea & coffee was provided at our Desmond course...if you paid for it...the worse instant coffee you could imagine & there was a bowl of sugar there too...possibly biscuits...but they weren't obvious...maybe saved for the reasonable course attendees.Yep. Rich Tea biscuits. I was the only attendee not to eat any of them.
Well I feel slighted now Prem...I didn't even get to stay for lunchI got (Rich Tea) biscuits with tea/coffee during the morning and afternoon breaks, and we were provided with white bread chicken/salad sandwiches for lunch. But they were free.
