It's hard for thee to kick against the pricks

[venta]

This lunchtime, I walked with a couple of colleagues to Morrissons. To get there, we trundled along a shared use footpath-and-cyclepath sandwiched between the A33 and the canal. We came back to the office down a bridleway between the sewage treatment works and the tip. Oh yes, we know how to live.

All along the bridleway are sprawling bramble bushes, covered with fat, glossy, tasty brambles. All well above even quite large dog-height.

So, I've washed the chicken salad remnants out of my baitbox. Me, the plastic box and the bike might be taking a slight detour on the way home tonight...

"isn't a berry at all, being rather an aggregate fruit." - and the Beatles technically weren't a pop group, since they didn't have an associative binary operator. And as of about 1947, thanks to Jean Leray wheat technically isn't gathered in sheaves any more. So that's what you get if you allow specific jargon meanings to replace the actual meaning of English words.
