G.'Magnet'

[Martin Baxendale]

shall I say it?

Not if it contains the words "big" and "head" in any sort of combination. However, "pwoargh!" might just be acceptable (but not followed by where'd all the hair go? - Lesley in New Zealand will have plenty to say about that when she sees this!)

But I'm probably still up for a chocolate fine.

Oh, no, I'm not rising to that one....

Now you've lost me. I was on about the punishment for the punning. What can you mean???

[Anthony Darby]

I'm definitely treading on thin ice as I will be seeing Maggi in 11 days at the Early Bulb Display in Dunblane.

As atonement for my sins (puns, double entendres and big-headedness) in this thread I am at this very moment commissioning for Maggi's enjoyment an exact likeness of 'Babe Magnet circa 1976' in finest Belgian chocolate (damn! I've done the big-headed thing again!) Of course it'll be scaled down to a manageable size (damn! done it again!)

Well, I was just going to mention that I couldn't see the very long pedicel you referred to as a defining feature for Galanthus 'Babe Magnet'.

[Martin Baxendale]

Oh no, no, no, no...I'm not falling into that trap - I'm in enough trouble with Maggi already! 

[Maggi Young]

Well done, Kristina, spoken like a true SRGC Forumist

[Anthony Darby]

I could suggest a characteristic not found in double snowdrops and also that 'Babe Magnet' is not poculiform either, but I won't?

I think you're in the wrong thread, Mark.

Oh, Dunblane! Right! Sorry!
