Horse Whisperer writer rushed to hospital

Nicholas Evans, who wrote the Horse Whisperer, his wife and members of their party were taken ill after picking wild mushrooms in Scottish woodlands which they cooked and ate. They were all taken to hospital.

I know eating the wrong kind of mushrooms is serious and can even cause death and I know it's no laughing matter.......but I smiled cause it seemed appropriate the writer of The Horse Whisperer was described as being in a "stable" condition  
Emperor Morphetine

Maybe horses poisoned them....
Lucifer_666

that sounds like one of my jokes

maybe they had taken some magic mushrooms and where whispering in some nearby horses ears  
Catnapper

I know there are horse chestnuts.....maybe they have horse mushrooms as well  
Emperor Morphetine

I wouldn't doubt it, I suspect they're craftier than we give them credit for!
Catnapper

True! Could be when Nicholas Evans recovers, he'll have the storyline for a new novel after this experience!
Emperor Morphetine

But what would he call it? 'Doom On Four Legs' perhaps?
Lucifer_666

Well if he wrote the Horse Whisperer...perhaps the sequel will be the Mushroom Murmurer  
Catnapper



I think I'll stick to buying mushrooms form Tesco  
Emperor Morphetine

Probably best, Cat!
Lucifer_666

Yep...though do you like mushrooms???urrgghh yuck    my parents used to love them and boil them in milk urrgghhhhh
Catnapper

In milk??? Yuck!! I like them grilled best  
Emperor Morphetine

Can't beat a nice well cooked mushroom now and again, though I wouldn't have them all the time if I'm honest.
Lucifer_666

Think of all those poor gnomes who have nowhere to sit now while fishing just so you all can have your mushroom fixes      

Save the Gnome!!!

I hear they've asked Ronnie Corbett to be their spokesman    
Emperor Morphetine

So that's where he's been, last time I saw him was in a Sky TV advert with Alice Cooper.....
Lucifer_666

 God imagine him as your spokesperson...everytime he would speak he would trail off into another story  
Catnapper

I used to will him to hurry up and finish the story  

I read he doesn't like people making jokes about his height and that's why he always pokes fun at himself (I nearly put belittles himself then!)
Emperor Morphetine

Nice pun, Cat  
Lucifer_666

 She has learned much from me   ..I feel so proud
