Welcome, welcome, sorry about the mess

So this is my blog, it's mainly about Africa and the fact that I'm going there, but it'll probably go on many a tangent before I'm through. Enjoy reading about my adventures, I know I'll enjoy having them.

conversation I'm sick of having

seem to have this conversation everywhere I go:
Them:Do you have this in your place (poining to a plant)
Me: I don't know
Them: This Napier Grass
Me:I don't know
Them: Oh you don't have it
Me:I don't know
Them:what do you feed cows?
Me: I don't know
Them: You don't have cows?
Me: No
Them: We feed this grass to cows.
Me: Okay.
Them: But there are no cows in your place.
Me: There are cows, I personally do not have any.
Them: So you do have napier grass.
Me: I don't know.
Them: But then what do you feed to the cows?
Me: I don't know, I don't feed cows.
Them: You don't have this grass?
Me: I don't know.
Them: This is Napier Grass.
Me: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGH.

the correct answer is - we have a cow, she is called Daisy, we feed her cookies. But she is a special cow, you should not feed your cow cookies. (that last bit is because I dont want to be responsible for the death of the entire cow poopulation of Kenya when they feed them cookies because the English woman said so)

I don't know, in my garden I mainly have weeds but I suppose some of those could be napier grass without my knowledge.
