See? We don't need 2,731 cookery programs or 5,629 cookery show hosts. We all KNOW that buhher belongs on new spudaytos and scones.....or is it scons?

And the new spudaytos in question were grown by morket gordners in good North County Dublin muck, lovingly tended by fair maidens from Latvia and my Woof.

The buhher was made in Culchieville, where the silage trees grow and are eaten by cows that can only be seen in black and white. These cows too are tended by fair maidens from Latvia. The cows know where the milk is and bring it to a special place where it's magicked into buhher.

Sorry, I can't help with how scones are grown. I think they may be what us experts call "root crops" because, although I'm VERY old and much travelled, I've never come across a scone bush. Scones, however, are quite poisonous without buhher. I nearly killed Santy one year with a scone without buhher. Luckily, he sussed it in time and gave it to one of his reindeer. But I suppose everybody knows about that because they wrote a song about it!

looksee

Wha' choo talking about Brens? Cows ARE black and white?

Jellybaby1

Its always 'scohnes'.......nevah 'scons', nevah, I tells ya! Unlike, the vase, for that becomes a vayze, a vahze, a vawze depending on who is speaking or where you happen to be and whether you are facing Mecca or not.

Scones are easily cultivated the same way as spaghetti trees, Bovril bushes, and climbing carrots. However, they do tend to ramble about and take over the garden, so beware, keep those scones pruned!

Cows were always black and white until they invented colour television.

Nobody is rubbing butter onto my scones .... not in public anyway. Anyone wants to give it a go see me behind the wheelchair sheds after Matron has gone to sleep. (Bring a warm spoon)

What is a scone anyway?

Regarding vayze / vahze / vawze, whatever happened to the ICA members who used to pronounce minute (60 seconds) as minyit? And suit as syute? And super as syooper?

Anyway, it sounds like you have studied morket gordening so I bow to your superior knowledge on this topic but, being a man, I know about technical mahhers. I have a coloured telly - well, it's black but there are colours on the screen - and the cows on my telly are still in black and white. To explain this, I could blind you with science - stuff like milliwatts, megavolts, picohertz, 6G, di-lithium crystals - but there are only two possible explanations:

1. There is a weak telly signal from the part of Culchieville where the cows live. Have you noticed that sheeps are also affected? Forests of silage trees are known to suck in huge amounts of picohertz so the colours disappear from your telly. If your sat nav fails and you end up in Culchieville, could you let us know what colour cows are really?;
2. The Culchies who own the cows and sheeps are trying their version of bar-coding to get the EU free money grants. But they don't use undercoat and the black and white paint takes ages to dry and smudges easily while wet. Duh!?! Put "Wet Paint" signs on them!

I think I once actually saw a coloured cow. It was while in Norn Arn and I was told it was a Broyn Coy cow. However, when we came back, I thought I got a slight paint smell and the Broyn Coy cow had turned into a Bleck n' Whate Coy cow. I was also told that Bleck n' Whate Coy cows didn't like winter: "Thurr freeshin' so thay orr". The Broyn Coy cow may have been a Bleck n' Whate Coy cow all along, possibly rolling in something brown earlier which fooled me until the hairdresser washed it off. One will never know, will one?

FYP, as they say.

I was listening to the BBC wurless recently and Patrick Kielty was standing in for that irritating DJ prat whose name I forget. Anyway, the irritating prat has a feature called a "Shout Out" - a cool, hip and trendy name for a request.
The quite entertaining Mr. Kielty came to the "Shout Out" spot but, being Norn Arsh, the "Shout" came out as "Shoyt". Well, I needn't tell yiz, never has my gob been so smacked! And then he repeated it!! And again!!!

I had to seek refuge with Radio 4. Haven't The Archers gone downhill since Walter Gabriel left?

Jellybaby1

Ah, the Archers, haven't seen heard them in decades. I remember the theme, it went.....

Den dee den dee den dee den, den dee den dee den dennn
