<<Oh ... Neil, turnips and swedes are completely different vegetables.>>

I realise that, but they are related; the full name for a swede is a "swede
turnip" and I thought that would be clearer for non-Brits on the list.  In
the US, they call it a rutabaga, and for some reason, Crosse & Blackwell
decided to use that name in their ingredients listing.

Okay, okay.... stay calm.... I am discussing the details of root
vegetables... just hand me that anorak and those glasses with the Bandaid on
the corner, will you?  Leave me here cataloguing the eye patterns on these
potatoes and I'll work it out of my system.

"Hey, I'll swap you my King Edward shaped like Elvis for your 8lb parnsip!"

Oh noooooooooooo!!!.....the temptation.

Neil goes for a lie down...
