Hay/horse feed?
Yes!
When WW1 broke out, it was thought that it would soon be over.
On realisation that this would not be so the first response was to send large numbers of horses to the front lines.
Even a pony needs 1/2 ton of fodder monthly

Correct.
Fairport Convention’s Dave Pegg, Black Sabbath’s Tony Iommi, Blodwyn Pig’s Mick Abrahams and Chicken Shack’s John Glascock all played for Jethro Tull at some stage in their career.
The bass riff is yours.
Thank you.
Which was the last Royal command performance for a televised British sitcom in the early 80's?

Wild guess time The Good Life or 'Allo! 'Allo!

The Good Life definitely had a Royal Command performance - don't know if it was the last. IMDB shows it as being in 1978. I can't imagine it was something like The Young Ones :lol:

Genuine guess - To the Manor Born?

The Good Life is correct... your floor.

Supposedly, if anyone knows anything different- read about it last week.
Apologies; did have the date wrong, it should have read '70's sitcom'.
