Again, this is difficult, I in a way I wish I'd posted something less ambiguous,

or been less strict. Do you mean Castanea sativa?

Phew. That's the one.



Again, sorry appearing pedantic - if someone'd said "chestnut", I would have

sid yes, but felt unable to say "yes" to "Chinese chestnut".

I think it's a photo-attached sign for a photo that shows two cockroaches conferring on a piece of ledger paper that's blown up against the siding of a house. Okay, I'm being a bad sport. :(

Congratulations, Angelica. You win the big prize. I think it's a car. :driving:

I'll play you a victory song. :guitarist

That's what I thought someone would say! The picture slightly resembles the

blow from a Bessemer Converter (not sure that there are any of these left, now)

or from some other steel-making process. No.

I re-open this to add that I'd *hoped* someone would say that!
