I'd think you were slightly strange. Bake it...

[Baldric]

More money than sense imo.

How much for a piccy of a carrot?

[Buenchico]

You can have carrot pictures free of charge, Sharon ;-)

Methinks you missed the link!

Baldric:
We might not always agree but I think that we do here!
(I hope the op went OK and that you're not suffering too much with any after-effects, BTW)

(h) get my old trusty spud gun out, Chris ;-)

Cheers Chris, should have been home Sat 1800 ish, actually made it 1300 Sun. but all ok.

[Buenchico]

Very good, Tony - although I'd have expected you to brew some potato hooch with it ;-)

[tonyav]

Ohhhhh, why didn't I think of that.

[Buenchico]

>>> should have been home Sat 1800 ish, actually made it 1300 Sun

Ruddy 'eck! Don't tell me that Virgin Rail are now running hospitals as well as trains!

;-)

[pixie374]

Yep :-) sorry..I've seen it now. Still, I would bake it.

[-SharonA-]

Oh yes!!!!!

[shoota]

I'd play it - always wanted a tuba....

[tamborine]

Irishman was Etsy MD & purchased Ireland with that piccy

[Buenchico]

Pixie:
Why not take its picture, sell the picture for £750,000 and then bake the spud?

Sharon:
I won't tell you which picture I most closely identify with ;-)

[Buenchico]

Shoota gets 'Best Answer', simply because there can't possibly be a more groan-worthy post than that one!
(I still enjoyed it though).

[Buenchico]

You're getting confused, Tambo. It's Greece that you can currently buy for £750,000 (or possibly with just a spud, actually!).

[-SharonA-]

Well talk about getting your five a day!!!!
And Buenchico, I can guess!!! :-0

I must insure my shed for millions. Loads of spuds like that in there.

[tonyav]

Some potatoes can be interesting to.
