    I believe Lettuce as a girls name was quite common then too.
    I'm sorry, but I'll make no apologies for this

        Yes. He is part of the taskforce "NUT" that steals nuts and brings them back to me so that I could feed them to my hungry subjects

                    I caught the last 10 minutes of a documentary on Prince Charles last night and he was stood in a kitchen in the wilds somewhere and this red squirrel came in, knicked something from a bucket and ran out again to eat it. Fantastic. The fact that it was a red and not a grey cheered me up no end. Let’s get rid of them and bring back the Red’s. We could do the same with the squirrels whilst we’re at it!
