My reply was based on guessing that he or she was asking a) what to call tendrils, and b) where to get passiflora seed. Really? My guess is that it's some erstwhile trolling prat from this group doing it again. Yes, I've concluded, at last, that you were right all along. But I won't deny I'm enjoying it so far: this one's creative. -- Mike. |

They're useful for keeping stockings up, and fixing shelves to the wall, and tying up children who don't know what to do with themselves in the summer holidays. Janet. Oh you mean duct tape - it holds the universe together :~) Only where the cut nails or orange bindey aren't suitable. |

The message
from Kay contains these words: In article , JennyC writes With hindsight I think the OP meant those green wire or plastic thingamabobs that hold climbers to their supports. Possibly not - they've repeated the question but with cucumbers. I trust they're thinly-sliced with just a hint of sea-salt? And to prevent repeating, grow Burpless... -- Rusty Emus to: horrid dot squeak snailything zetnet point co full-stop uk http://www.users.zetnet.co.uk/hi-fi/ |

Possibly not - they've repeated the question but with cucumbers. Of course they have. Everyone knows that cucumbers have wire or plastic thingamabobs. Interesting use of the very English word 'thingamabob' by a supposedly non-English speaker/writer, don't you think? Amazing what assumed illiteracy can do for the determined troll. That was Jenny who was the illiterate troll who introduced 'thingamabob'! I'd take cover if I were you ;-) -- Kay "Do not insult the crocodile until you have crossed the river" |

Kids' stuff! The universe is held together with baling twine. I think it's part of String Theory. Orange bindey -is- baling twine. It's certainly holding a lot of this part of the universe in place, judging from a brief glance (that's all I can bear) at the contents of what we humorously call Our Garage. -- Sue |
