I think I'd have to go for a French Climbing Bean called Polish Purple Stringless :lol: :lol:

French beans are a great favourite and most of my family are Polish so there you are. :D

An you OH?

Here are a few suggestions for appropriate adoptions:

Old Herbacious - Broad Bean Bonny Lad (cos he is :!: )

Tigger - Tomato Tiger Tom

Johnboy - Bean Dragon's Tongue (suitable if anyone mentions SA :!: )

Monika - Lettuce Northern Queen

Jopsy - Pea Glory of Devon

Lizzie - Tomato White Princess

and I suppose I'd have to go for any of the leeks :wink:

Anyone dare suggest adopters for District Nurse, Lazy Housewife, Small thin red hot pepper,or long green Buddha?

Dear Alan, i did have someone for lazy housewife, but then i realized you had already got one for Lizzie. :twisted: :lol: :wink:

I don't know if Seedling would be offended by the Small thin red hot pepper. :)

We just need someone for District Nurse an Long green Buddha now.

Forgot to look to see if there was one for Grockodile.

I was just thinking, i wonder if that is why Chantal is so good at Pole dancing. :shock: :lol: :wink:

OH, there is a huge difference between pole dancing and dancing Poles. :roll:

I'm actually half German to be honest, but the town in which my father was born is now in Poland. It's very confusing.

I suppose pea, Prince of Prussia is probably more accurate. :lol:

I think I would like to be 'Pea - Lancashire Lad' as Lancashire is my county of origin, and I am truly a Lancashire Lad.

Nice one
