weired one about Cow Parsley
OK come on when did you last have you Cow Parsley knowledge tested?
Well here goes, yesterday while walking my dog, at the edge of my Village (yes what do the do for an idiot when i'm on holiday?) I saw 3 African looking guys in a field carrying huge white fertilizer type poly sacks and were picking the heads off the cow parsley in the field
now point
1, there is no large imigrant population where I live so these guys had come a distance to pick what is a common hedge row/grassland weed
2, they had come equipped to pick as much as the could
3, what could they want it for?, it's eddible but its not great tasting nor very nutricious
4, it is possibly a mosquito repellent but mossers aren't a major prob. in rural staffs.!
not a racist nor anti immigrant rant, I am just curious as to what these guys were up to,so any suggestions?
OK I could have/should have asked them but as the land owner is very protective of his grassland crop so entering that particular field, if spotted will get you a forceful "get orf moi land" red faced rant, and would you have faced up to 3 "strangers in a field"?
