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. 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".
I can't tell whether that was sincere or not, but hey ho! :tongue: I was proud of myself, I thought it was rather good!! Still waiting for the next one though, why do people take soo long!!
I assure you, madam, it was sincere. And I've already done the next one, it's on the previous page....
I don't know! Which end should I knot:tongue: I know that there is a band called The End who have a song called "Throwing stones"
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....
