I would have got it if you had wrote "a herb"
|

IT's these bloody Americans - they've even got me pronouncing it 'erb
|
|
|
|
|
That's because they are polluted with French, I mean, the way they pronounce bouy for example,and throw 'that' into sentences to link them! Disgusting!
|
|
|
|
|
The one that *really* gets me every time is the way they pronounce "route" to rhyme with "grout". I cannot get used to that one.

Chicory isnt a herb!!!
Its a vegetable!

Google "Define:herb" Any plant with leaves, seeds, or flowers used for flavouring, food, medicine, or perfume.
I guess by some definitions it is. Not mine, admittedly, but I didn't set the CCC!

Since when has chicory the plant, whose root is used as a coffee substitute, been a herb?
And the above ground big pale lettuce looking thing, well I mean!

Yes - but OG beat you to it....
|
|

You sod, chicory isnt a herb, had me wasting the whole morning!
|
|
|
|
|
whinge whinge whinge - OG's already answered you on this point. It's been used in herbal medicine since forever. And it didn't stop OG from getting it (as soon as he had the musical clue!)
Oh - and btw - I never put tomatoes in my fruit salad either!

|
|
Oh, right, you realised it was a rubbish clue and decided to change it eh?
|
|
|
|
|
I realised you poor lot were struggling... it was a perfectly good clue. The musical clue was only to give you a nudge towards the right Mrs Previn (ex) - nothing to do with herbs or chicory per se. Come on, take it on the chin - you was beat!
|
|
|
|
|
Well if I has seen your edit I would have stood a chance!
Come on, your edit attests to your guilt about posting a rubbish clue, admit it!
|
|
|
|
|
No - it attests to the fact that I can't do it tomorrow so needed a winner!
