Marco.
Most of them are only supposed to 'work' by their suggestive appearance, and in the way they are consumed: asparagus; figs; oysters, etc. The use of rhino horn is utter nonsense, it's made of keratin, so you have as much success with it as you would chewing your fingernails. Again it's the shape of a rhino's horn that gives it any (misguided) credence in it being an aphrodisiac.Quote:

I've always thought that but was unsure whether they are taking the piss or just plain stupid. Sorry Marco, I know you've said before that you are pro-Chinese medicine, but it's all wrong imo :doh:Quote:

Just had a duck in the house...
Flew over into my garden panicking, something had obviously spooked it and headed straight into my conservatory door and head first at my 401 :eek:
It was trying to get out the front window (ducks obviously don't get glass). I grabbed a throw, threw it over the duck and gathered it up then took it outside and let it go. It seemed to fly away ok so fingers crossed no harm done.
I have a 'through lounge with a large window at one end, and floor-to-ceiling patio doors at the other.
On several occasions I have had birds fly into the window, presumably thinking it to be a tunnel, attracted by the light at the other end. In most cases there has been a loud 'thump' and the bird flies away; although stunned and possibly wounded. On one occasion, sadly the impact was so severe the bird broke its neck. :(
went into the town at lunchtime today because I'm fed up eating the crappy sandwiches from the local shop.
There was a place advertising baked potatoes so I thought that would do for a change. Asked for one with cheese - three quid!
I had to go outside again just to make sure there wasn't a sign saying 'Millionaires Only' out front. (There wasn't).
Thought it would be about £1.75, or two quid tops. Just ridiculous.
a bit steep unless it was a big un with an expensive filling.. cost of spud? 20p for a big unQuote:
