Do you mean to say that you bought, owned and sold a horse before you had a courgette? Merely a lapse or did you start your horse career young? Perhaps you are violently opposed to them and did it to clinch the deal.DRT wrote:Random fact: the first time I ate courgettes was in Kirkcudbright whilst selling a horse.
This fact is obviously very disturbing, I was thinking about it tonight as well. I thought that he narrowly avoided being a Frenchman: had he fed the courgette to the horse before eating it, he would have been given a passport forthwith.LGTrotter wrote:Speaking of Derek, I am intrigued;DO you mean to say that you bought, owned and sold a horse before you had a courgette?

I was married at the time. We were selling one of our three horses to a family in Kirkcudbright. When we arrived to drop it off we were invited to stay for dinner. When dinner arrived my now ex-wife glared at me and mumbled "eat them". We didn't yet have the money for the horse so I did what I was told. My aversion to/hatred of green things is by no means a new phenomenon.LGTrotter wrote:Speaking of Derek, I am intrigued;Do you mean to say that you bought, owned and sold a horse before you had a courgette?

I think this should become a general rule. JDAW is the inventor so must rule yes or no.DRT wrote:In terms of the rules, asking a single yes/no question is equivalent to a guess. For example:
Daniel: "Ben Nevis?"
Owen: "Is it higher than Everest?"
!Daniel's turn to guess.
No.djewesbury wrote:Is it higher than Ben Nevis?

No. This bulletin board started because somebody thought that owning a domain meant owning the conversation hosted on it. Wrong. The conversation is owned by those taking part in it. I might have initiated this thread, many posts ago, and it has become not ‘was created’ a beautiful thing. But it is not ‘mine’: it belongs to those taking part in it.DRT wrote:I think this should become a general rule. JDAW is the inventor so must rule yes or no.
