Title: Indigenous species
Post by: tel on November 09, 2007, 03:02:16 PM
Been watching Autumnwatch on the Beeb - saw the beavers being re-introduced.
What about the wolves and the bears?
Twould make people think twice about what they did in the country-side.

Can we re-introduce intelligent people? And people who can drive properly? And white dog poo? And the rag-and-bone man? And Worthington "E"?

Worthington E? White Shield, yes.

I suppose you'll also want Whitbread Tankard, Ind Coope Double Diamond, Younger’s Tartan and Courage Tavern.
