You laugh, you joke. Yet how much time have you spent in the last week thinking about EU DAIRY MARKET SUBSIDIES??? Probably less than 5 hours. You all make me sick.

Dairy Farmer

Do you have any interest at all in Leonard Cohen? I just wonder because all of your posts seem to be bemoaning the British farming industry. Maybe another website would allow you to protest more effectively.

What a snobbish post, Margaret. Do you think you are superior to me because I am just a farmer?

As it happens, a mate of mine introduced me to Cohen quite recently. He lied to me that Cohen's new CD included a track called "A Thousand Cheeses Deep".

I am going to kill him and then slaughter all his sheep. I am going to set fire to his barn.

Dairy Farmer person, perhaps you could have a look at the Bob Hope website, where an appropriate song for your early morning squeezings would be "Thanks For The Mammaries."

Dairy Farmer,

are you "the butcher" as well?

I could supply a tankerful of mint sauce for your imprompto BBQ. I would have to hide it in Jo's thickets though.

Hi JTS

I wouldn't have known Edwin Starr died it wasn't really reported it was a 2 second postscript on the news. He lived and died in Engand Sheffield I think. That surprised me more than the fact he had died. I saw him once down the Ram Jam Club in Brixton.

"War good god y'all what is it good for absolutely nothing"

Was that quote regarding war by Edwin Starr? I know it, but have never heard of him.

hi Lizzie

http://www.itv.com/news/441879.html

Is a a link for his obituary. He only died in April in Nottingham but he was born in Detroit

His biggest hit was "WAR". But he might have nicked the lyrics off Paula H with her "War what is it good for absolutely Muffins"

He was a soul man nowhere near as good as Otis Redding or Oscar Toney Jnr but not bad. Too young to die.

Mint sauce, Byron?

Now that's a commodity I haven't yet considered.

Does mint sauce go well with a free Leonard Cohen (with syrup) with every muffin (voted for)?

I think this certainly is something my palate must consider. I'll let you know in due time whether your mint sauce may be safely assumed to add the necessary piquancy to my thickets. Whatever the outcome, I'm sure we'll find some suitable accomodation for your mint sauce.
Spicefully yours
Jo

Hi Paula ~

Thanks for the link. I sure remember the song [who couldn't, once having heard it], but his name doesn't even ring a bell. David of olde no doubt knows him well. I'll check out the link.

I wouldn't have anything to do with Byron's mint sauce, Jo, if I were you. It usually goes with mutton dressed as lamb

Thank you for that warning Linmag - I shall have to consider it seriously when Byron turns up in my thickets with his large quantities of mint sauce.

Being a bit woolly myself, I have no beef with poor little lambs - I find I have more of an affinity with mutton, so I don't think the mint sauce will go to waste - as long as Byron has no objections to an added touch of syrup.

Yours in spice of not yet having a free Leonard Cohen (with syrup) with every mutton (voted for)

Muffins or War

Muffins (lightly toasted with perhaps a little strawberry jelly) or a *just* War with not very many casulaties
