Orchid PE Member? You 'member. Joined Oct 28, 2019 Messages 6,834 Reaction score 1,620 Nov 14, 2019 #11,712 I'm not interested!
Orchid PE Member? You 'member. Joined Oct 28, 2019 Messages 6,834 Reaction score 1,620 Nov 14, 2019 #11,713 It could be carried by an African swallow.
Orchid PE Member? You 'member. Joined Oct 28, 2019 Messages 6,834 Reaction score 1,620 Nov 14, 2019 #11,714 Oh, yeah, an African swallow maybe, but not a European swallow. That's my point.
Orchid PE Member? You 'member. Joined Oct 28, 2019 Messages 6,834 Reaction score 1,620 Nov 14, 2019 #11,715 Oh, yeah, I agree with that.

Orchid PE Member? You 'member. Joined Oct 28, 2019 Messages 6,834 Reaction score 1,620 Nov 14, 2019 #11,717 But then of course, uh, African swallows are non-migratory.

Orchid PE Member? You 'member. Joined Oct 28, 2019 Messages 6,834 Reaction score 1,620 Nov 14, 2019 #11,719 So, they couldn't bring a coconut back anyway.
