On the subject of herbs, it is a very good time to be an arable farmer.

If there wasn't so much hard work involved I would probably be one myself.

Even if the snail could hear, would you think it could understand English?

Quote from: "Snail Website"

    Snails usually travel in irregular paths, often traveling in a circle.
   Snails reply mainly on their sense of touch and smell when finding food because they have very poor eyesight.
   Snails cannot hear. However if they could, their brains could understand any language.
   Snails can retract one or both of their tentacles at a time.
   Because of the suction created by their slime, a snail can crawl upside down.
   Snails are nocturnal animals which means they are more active at night.
