Two days before the end now. I've been updating http://www.mx1.org.uk/ELD/ with the texts. Seem to be still enjoying it despite the whimpers and less than ideal weather.
Dog blossom = cauliflower. A phrase I've used for more years than I can remember. It started as one of my collies was very fond of the stuff and would nick it off my plate if the chance offered.
"Traffic light thermal wear :)"
The mind boggles...Running joke since the Chef's Outing up the Great Glen Way. I'd advised everyone taking thermal wear given the time of year. I already had the stuff (bright yellow as it happens) but Ewa did an order for everyone else via a Polish firm and everyone picked their own colours. Most went for black, Ewa's was red & yellow top and green bottoms; Tash picked pink & purple, edged nicely in black. I was in a spot of trouble for suggesting she looked like a liqorice allsort
( ... )
grone! I might have known; lucky the dog was of that breed, and not, perhaps, a Rottweiler :-)
I was in a spot of trouble for suggesting she looked like a liqorice allsort. ... Tash remarked that, from above, we probably looked like a wasp stuck at a traffic light...
- I reckon those two descriptions balance each other out very nicely :-)

An alternative name for an edible wild plant, I assume...
