I dunno, you could do an invisible painting with the tatty, then spray the canvas with a starch indicator to make it show up.

But as for swedes/parsnips/turnips etc, I can't stand them,as soon as I taste it my body has one of those 'automatic stomach evacuation reflexes' that normally only occur when alcohol is involved. :-o

I agree with you on the parsnips front.  They are revolting.

Don't mind swede with carrot though.

And while we're on the subject of Swedes, it looks like they've overtaken us Brits as the worlds #1 nation of whingers,article at The Register.
 Dammit, that's just not cricket, I'm gonna have to start writing letters of disgust to The Times.
