Subject: RE: BS: Quiz - Answers Required From: Liz the Squeak Date: 04 Jan 05 - 05:08 AM Ivies do flower but they are green and berry-like.... so don't get noticed. If No2 didn't specify sex, it could be 'Jack-go-to-bed-at-noon'..... these flowers are randy buggers! LTS |

Subject: RE: BS: Quiz - Answers Required From: GUEST,Raggytash Date: 04 Jan 05 - 05:16 AM Didn't consider that No5 could be a a typo, we were thinking of Frogs, tadpoles etc etc. We did think of Briar but again it's the plant and not the flower, the flower on a briar is a rose, it probably depends on how "lax" the question setter is |
