        Not forgetting rosemary (that's for remembrance) Did you know there is, at the moment, a shortage of tarragon? It has had a failed harvest. Not that I care, I can't stand the taste of it. Lovers of it will have to wait for the British harvest. Just a piece of trivia.

                          The Herb is Mr Alpert, the no mates refers to something he played.

                            As I discovered, hence the edit. Time to escape into the fresh air. A walk by the sea, followed by a light lunch centring on a bacon butty and accompanied by 'Desert Island Discs', after which there'll be enough time to catch up with 'Private Passions' before the big match gets under way.
