I heard the follow up to that one was 'Red sky in the morning, Hemels still burning'.  It was on the News Quiz.

Alice says she can get AT LEAST 4 worms on a magic mushroom, but she's not going to try 'cos she's having a very happy time reading up on Folk Lore   ;D

 ;D ;D ;D wish I could drink the stuff, but it just gets up me nose and I sneeze! Ooo there's a worm in there too, isn't there? Why is there a worm in there? ???

Derekthefox

Yup that seems about right growmore, the stuff I drink is worm free I hope.

Derekthefox :D

The worm is supposed to have psychedelic properties as it feeds exclusively on peyote cactus which the native Americans injest to transcend to a higher plane.  Being a veggie, I cannot attest to whether this is true or not as I have never had the drink.

Ooooo am so hoping boa fed and you lose Jags!! What a pic! And Flowerlady, if I'd found the fur coat, well....would have donned, shot meself in the foot with an arrow and hobbled back to A4A for TLC.... ;D And still I ask, why the worm in tequilla? Why not just eat the worm if it's supposed to do that....am I missing something?  ???

What about this one:

"The strawberry grows underneath the nettle
And wholesome berries thrive and ripen best
Neighbour'd by fruit of baser quality."

Weird huh?

Derekthefox

Worm in tequila? There isn't one actually ...

Hope this clears up any confusion, now I can get back to my drinking ...  ;)

Derekthefox :D

Ne'er cast a clout before May is out!

And; Don't peg worms on the line to dry
(no, I made that bit up)
