Vegetables!! Covers everything!! lol
Let us be lovely
And let us be kind
Let us be silly and free
It won't make us famous
It won't make us rich
But damn it how happy we'll be!

I'm guessing 'X' will prove challenging.

The best I've been able to come up with so far is <i>arracacia Xanthorizza</i>, which is the systematic name for arracacha, a South American vegetable I've never heard of (isn't Wikipedia wonderful? :cooldude: ).

Will that do, or is there actually a vegetable out there whose name starts with X?

Let's kick off with girl's names... I'll start with one beginning with A, next person answers with one beginning with B... then C.... etc

The trick will be to see if we can avoid duplicating the first round - should be fine until we reach Q. :?

Since I'm a major Bagpuss fan, I'll have to go for <b>Emily</b>.
