Hi Victoria.
Concerning your post #13, I remember a TV program about plants having feelings, apparently a murderer came in to he room and the plants were quivering in fright or something, it was proved later that they were spot on, may have been a set up I don't know. Cut back a Rosemary bush the other day the smell was on me for days, mind you I enjoy the smell of Rosemary.

Re: Food
Walter Raleigh was knighted for inventing the potato.
John Henry Block invented chips.
Hence "a chip off the old Block".
Not many people know this.

Re: Food
May have introduced tobacco but, Sir Walter Raleigh led many expeditions to America and also introduced tobacco,
doubt he could have claimed to have invented them ?
