    So you would seriously turn down a contract in another country because of one vegetable? Are you really not able to make your own choice at a dinner table?


    and who knows... they haven't ruled out UK cucumbers as the source yet
    Oh, I’m sorry….I seem to be lost. I was looking for the sane side of town. I’d ask you for directions, but I have a feeling you’ve never been there and I’d be wasting my time.

      Although they _say_ they've cleared the Spanish cucumber, perhaps the Germans were right the first time but EU functionaries shouted them down and suppressed it to avoid increasing unemployment in Spain.
      I dunno, but I stopped buying cucumbers several months ago when they went rotten inside about half a day, even when kept in the fridge.

      Summat was wrong with them, wherever they came from.

        They do sometimes look a little pasty.

          I think they should round up all the infected and put them in special camps "until they get better".

            Well, I won't work in Birmingham because AtW lives there, does that count?
