I wish they had tried harder to find out who called the cops.
We have a right to know who was the leeker.

Lol I love this forum. Thank you for the link! Now I just gotta figure out why Asian Americans think I’m asking for ginger when I say galangal.

Bloody hell…I send you to the market to fetch a bag of machetes and you come home with bloody leeks. I’m fed up. Last week you swapped our cow for “magic beans”. Where’s it gonna end Jack?

Thanks, everyone, this thread has made my day! I am, quite literally, wiping tears from my eyes, through laughing, not because of onions I hasten to add…

Well, it WAS Aberdeen. They have probably never seen a fresh vegetable there.

Pfui! Leeks are nothing against the great British rolled newspaper! These lumps on my head could tell a tale!
