the bluebells are out!

Crocii?! 'Croci', at a pinch...
O woe, Geoff! I'll bet you also use 'virii' instead of 'viruses'...

An enviranmental disaster, yes?
Cheers, Chris

What else should I expect from the Lounge Pedant?

However, in my defence, I copied it from an earlier post in this thread, which you didn't pedanticise. Is it only an error when it's made by me?

Oh Geoff! Don't be so inflated with pendanticitis!!
Who cares who made an error - as long as it's not an error that I made?
Cheers, Chris
P.S. apropos crocii, if we are discussing the background singers, are they the crociing chorus from the Frogs of Aristophanes? C
P.P.S and do two postscripts announce a chrisii?
P.P.S. Attached is my submission for the Lounge Record for the number of mis-spellings in a post prior to submission. C

To be padantick, rofl is not a spelling error.

The yellow ones look suspicious, I have seen those imposters before , they only seem to show their face by nice bright weather, like now, when they try to dominate and hide my only blue Tulip

Isn't that a blue sunflower?

[DocAElstein]

Ahh, yes, you could be right…..
…All my problems started when a few years ago, in total ignorance of these things, I just mixed all the seeds up and scattered them about, so I ended up with some cross breeding and its difficult now to keep up with what all they’re all up to. I think I got some nice new things though, horizontal growing winter hard sunflowers that are starting nicely to hide me – they look like conifers most of the time

I am not fooled by them though, as some of them are growing exactly where the biggest SunFlowers were last year

I've worked out what the problem is.
Five years ago I should have moved to San Diego.

Snowdrops! Sunflowers!

They look more like mini ature-tulips.

Snowdrops!

You are right Hans; it does. But I feel that we have had more of enough of it until December.
Cheers, Chris

They look more like mini ature-tulips.

Well, of course, if they were blue they'd look more like mini azure-tulips.
Cheers, Chris
