  10. To all those who seem to resent others that have inherited money, a farm, or the tree biz, if you do become relatively successful and you have a son or daughter, I guess you'll fold the business before you die so they can't inherit it? Now about farmers, back in the 1980's I know arable farmers earn't a fortune in subsidies, a family I know [2000 acres] used there subs to buy more land and property's, in a nutshell, subs made them!

Where on earth have ypu been for the last 12 years that article was wrote in 2000, anyway sorry to burst your bubble, but I read a much larger colony of Honey Fungus was found recently in Russia. Also an Aspen grove in Washington state may now be the worlds largest living organism, due to all the trees being genetically the same.

  24. When I was a lad I had school dinners, the dinner was as nutritious as food in the 1970's was, we had no choice it was spam fritters, beef stews, pies all with veg and spuds, the desert was always starchy milky and sweet, suet puddings, spotted dick, custard, tapioca, all washed down with tap water Our old head master Mr Rose [a man I have to this day so much admiration for] would patrol the tables like a crow, nobody left the table without eating everything on your plate! regardless if you liked it or not. I watched a tv programme about a family that settled in a small village in France, the school dinner was cooked by 2 lady's from the village in the schools own kitchen, I was amazed at what was on the menu, pork and bean stew with proper veg including and pasta, desert was a fruit pudding of some kind. The little primary school aged kids loved it. If these jerks that are in charge of our kids at school, really cared about them , they'd bring back Mr Rose and employ there own cooks who cook wholesome food, haven't they heard ''an army marches on its stomach'' If I was in power [lol] free school dinners cooked in school kitchens, would be supplied free of charge to every school age child and the meals would be a healthy one choice option!
