Oh, go on, then...
As I've mentioned before, a large part of my family are all involved (either directly or indirectly) in the farming industry.

One of my great Uncles is a bit, shall we say, eccentric. After many years of working in the metal shops making bits for tractors, combines and the like, he turned his not inconsiderable metalworking skill in to a new area.

One of the landed gentry from up the way heard of my Uncles new work, and quickly commissioned him to produce some decorative works that he could put on his horse saddle - the main purpose being to impress the object of his desire, the daughter of the local brassica tsar.

My uncle thought long and hard about his task, and scant 6 weeks later presented his commissioner with...

A Brass-Stud Cauli.

(I'm sorry. Really.)

I could see where that was going as soon as I reached the word "brassica"... I wanted to do something similar, but couldn't think of the framework. Have a congratulatory click.
