Mushroom Enquiry

This morning the following e-mail has landed in the rosewoodfarms.co.uk inbox:

Quote:
Please send me info about courses etc. I want to do it not watch a DVD

dom
gil

Confused Shocked Rolling Eyes
Rob R

Shall I send him details of a course in manners?
gil

Other than by the fact you've put this in Foraging, it's not clear from the enquiry what exactly he would like a practical course in, instead of watching DVDs.

Manners would be a good start.

Ah well the subject header says: Mushroom foraging courses

Hang on, there's another e-mail (from a slightly different hotmail address, but the same guy), sent ten minutes previously:

Quote:
Do you run courses or who does in the area. info please.

Oh... Well there are certainly assorted residential courses in this kind of thing. Send him here to Downsizer to ask. Who is this from?
Rob R

It's from dom, just a random enquiry. I've sent him to John Wright's website, for some reason I didn't want to send him here. Rolling Eyes

I do hope John Wright's courses are expensive.
Do they cover manners ?
mushroom man

Not sure I understand this thread at all.

My "Mushrooms" courses are actually very cheap. My "manners" course, however, is terribly expensive. Very Happy
Rob R

He's just a guy that sent me two rather curt enquiries the other night because he wanted to do a course instead of buying the DVD (which is available on my site) Rolling Eyes I found that rather like contacting a butcher to tell him you're a vegetarian. I think gil's comments about being expensive was to make up for the fact that he might not come to it with the best set of manners, though if you could teach him some along the way then he certainly would benefit from it.
