Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).

Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.

cheers GF.

confess that i'm not a great lover of sorrel as i find it's flavour rather too aggressive
certainly can't buy in the super, and use so little that i do not bother to grow

however, a discreet amount of lovage gives good flavour too, but again do not usre too much, and preferably small young leaves too
i haven't tried borage, but that too is a possibility

Indonesia executions .all countries should follow them hang the bastards

they shot them actually, but still

anyway, though i would not like to see the return of capital punishment in uk, i have no sympathy at all with those who so blatantly traffic in drugs in indonesia and other countries
the penalty for so doing is not only well known but set out loud and clear at point of entry

I have grown few roots of Lovage for 40 years or so. I use very rarely, if I run out of celery. Very strong taste, never sure about it.

Try mixing a few Sorrel leave with Spinach for fish. It is a perennial, but not to everyone's taste.


Like the tories!

Miliband meeting with Russel Brand.

What on earth is this all about?

Advice from Russel?

Advice to Russel?

Advice from Miliband?

Advice to Miliband?

Any ideas?

Haystack: What's your take on it?

It is just Miliband getting desperate. Brand has a following and his own channel on YouTube. It is a way of Miliband appealing to young voters and getting lots of hits. Of course, other people watch the video. I watched it, so did my wife and my two boys. We are all Conservatives, so his hits don't mean a lot.

It is also a desperation measure, because Brand has told people not to vote at all. If Miliband wants to encourage people to vote, then he should have tried this BEFORE the voting registration date passed. Social media for politics is vastly exaggerated as the people who watch it are mainly activists anyway.

They're bonding, one Champagne socialist to another.

i grant you that sorrel is not as sour as you you old git! :-)

I think you would like them as well

I don't want to sound insulting but Miliband always looks like he has sat on a wasp and yet to realise it......the pain is just starting to filter through....

Cameron and tory cronies are disconnected from the voters, especially the younger ones and especially students.

Miliband, is showing he is aware and "maybe" his Brand interview may show he is aware and prepared to involve "disillusion and those who feel dissociated" .

He at least is prepared to make approaches and recognise their "grievances". He may benefit from a few more votes in university towns.

Must admit the Brand makes me wince.

So he does know he's sat on one......aware.....

Hays that link to oddschecker confirms the odds I posted which was a fair reflection.

There is one bookie Betway going 11/10 Cam , average is around 5/4 and best as I posted 11/8.

Best for Milli is 4/6.

You seem to have picked up the lowest odds for Cameron and I don't know where you got the Milliband odds from.

I think that we might get Cameron as PM but he he is probably goingto have to fight to get the SNP and LD's on board....not easy....unless he can just get a majority....huge effort needed by the Tories this week to convince an undecided electorate it seems....god's speed...

No chance of SNP rf but another tie up with the Libs if they can hold enough seats is probably their best hope at the moment.
