The frongs plant looks to me like a fatsia japonica

Prongs or phones

Could it be prongs, as in kitchen/toast prongs?

Isn't this maddening? I couldn't decide why I had written 'scream' on my shopping list - when I got home I realised it was 'salad cream'. Years ago at work a colleague brought me a memo I had hand written (before the days of email) and asked me what the last sentence was. Sadly, I couldn't read it either, and from that point I typed everything.

That’s quite funny,my husband just had a test (driving,he’s going to be 80)& one of the things he had to do was say how many things beginning with F he could in a short time,he must have missed that one !

I remember years ago when I used to take shorthand dictation, I was never very good at it and made most of it up so when it came to reading it back I hadn't got a clue what I'd written but the experienced secretary who work opposite me could always read it!

All sorted, but thanks for trying, it was my made up word of Frongs!! More info in the thread lol.
