Coming back to this rather late - my step daughter drove up to
Stonehenge last night and said there was a huge field of white
poppies,
stretching as
far as the eye could see. None of us know why such a vast
quantity
of white
poppies is being grown but in that number, it must be as a crop,
surely?

Possibly for oil?

And again - why white?

Pass. Lack of strong flavour, mayhap?

And what is poppy oil used for?

Cooking: but cooking what, I dunno.

Oil painting. It's a drying oil, but, unlike linseed, doesn't go
yellow.
