    omg, the "erb"/"herb" thing really does my head in. only because when i was little i always called them "herbs" and my mom would always correct me telling me "herb is a mans name, the things that are used to season are 'erbs' with a silent 'h'."

    so i still struggle with that one.

    and yes, they are courgettes, but i don't like eggplant/aubergines so i don't really think about them. it did take me a few months though to realize that zucchini were courgettes, as i thought a courgette might be something European and that there just weren't zuchinni over here. :p
    i haven't made any courgette bread yet however, hmm, might put that on my list of things to do.

    We say 'erb up here in t'north. Very lazy with our H sounds.

    It's weird, because as much as I do things like that, I hate it when kids say "free" instead of "three". [​IMG]

    Is the wrong answer. The correct answer is that Salman Rushdie's novel 'Haroun and the Sea of Stories', a damning indictment of the repression of freedom of speech, features a character satirising Ayatollah Khomeini called Khattam-Shud, which translates as The End. Anywhoo, your go....
