Oh oh ...... Had a friend for dinner tonight who is a Chef here in Ch .... and he said "Yes! The Helix Pomatia - the "Vineyard Snail" is definitely edible .... and PROTECTED!".....

..... They are the Big snails ..... they only eat decayed matter.... The pests are the small ones who eat the vegetables and flowers! Shame... I feel ashamed..... for killing perfectly Innocent Snails along with my enemy ones!

Oh well, I console myself that I`m never tooooo old to learn something new ... and now I am having to educate all my neighbors!

I think slugs & snails are kinda cute. I even used to keep them in a glass jar when I was a kid. They're fun to watch and to handle. laugh

When we go for a dog walk after rain, I try to make sure I don't step on any. I certainly wouldn't eat them... laugh

CORRECTION!!
Please downgrade the alarm on Giant Maritime Slugs......
What happened was, a rather large amphibious being known as a Beer-Bellied Bikini-clad Brit Broad rubbed hulls with me in the water....needless to say, she didn't appreciate the vitamin C infusion....

I have a horrible feeling that Rusty died and has been re-incarnated as Lagoona?

My dear man, do you not know, yet, that only Gay Guys wear Speedos? ... or Weight-Lifters cause they ... or never mind their reasons .....suffice to say, mostly Gays wear them ... or realy weird guys who arent Lifeguards.

To be able to recall my likes/dislikes on this subject - They were not likes or dislikes, merely a comment on How Do Guys Have The Courage To Subject Their Private Parts To All And Sundries Scrutiny Whilst Clinglingly Clad In Shimmering Nylon Lycra? Most women do not realy like them. I suppose some women do like them - for reasons known only to themselves. Personally I would not be seen dead on the beach with a guy in a speedo.comfort laugh .. or alive. I prefer a man to look Manly, not a Peacock strutting with his goods on display.wink
