New potatoes and mint

No, it's not a thing of the 50's :-) We still have it :-)

It's the herb Mint, not the sweet mint

Here's a recipe - beautiful with Lamb

Rugby? Who wants to go to Rugby?

Beer to ward off the bonk.

Where's GraysonKelly, worried about her clothes? 100 miles in bomber jacket or cardigan, scarf and penny loafers.

That looked like a LAW armband @ 4:34.

Looked like only the one guy was putting it on. Is this an international expedition, I wonder? Or was/is there a sister organization with a near-identical logo?
