Ah yes I well remember the "herbacious borders' one-LOL

there was another one in which someone spoke in french and it ended
up with Paul supposed to talk about the subject using his Metal Work
lingo (sorry but I can't quite remember the other panelists-maybe
tony hawks and clement?) Miriam

cuz it was an episode that she was on. It had to do with 'herbacious
borders', during the subject of 'Green Fingers' and it was something
that Clement said to the extent that his herbacious borders
could 'outwit' people, and Paul challenged on that notion, and
Nicholas left the subject with Clement, which created some incredible
banter and numerous examples of how ridiculous the whole idea was,
which includes an herbacious border buying a car without the owner's
knowledge or having an herbacious border beat you at chess.
