Quite so. I have never been keen on parships either. Or Swedes, whatever they are.

Turnip recipe


Boil 3 or 4 turnips till they are three parts cooked.
Take them up, drain them, cut them into slices, and fry them in hot fat till they are lightly browned and quite tender.
Drain them, and serve with fried or boiled cutlets.
Or peel them and cut them into very thin slices.
Let them lie in cold water for an hour, and drain them.
Dissolve a slice of butter in a stewpan, and in this dissolve 1 tablespoon of chopped onion for five minutes.
Put in the slices of turnip, sprinkle a little pepper and salt over, and let them steam till they are soft.
A spoonful or two of water may be added if there is any fear that they will burn.
Then throw them away and order a pizza

Exactly ~ an alternative is to throw them directly into a field full of sheep or cattle ~ saves all that preparation time.

WTF is going on? F&M in Surrey, Blue Tongue in East Anglia, H5N1 Bird Flu in Suffolk.
It'll be plagues of locusts and such next. We have offended the Gods!

Why so sad? Some estimates say that if it turns into a pandemic, it could wipe our 25% of the population. Which is a good thing.
