Definitions from the Collins English dictionary:

Boob:
1. An ignorant or foolish person; booby
2. An embarrasing mistake
3. A female breast
4. To make a blunder

Booby:
1. an ignorant or foolish person (see above)
2. The losing player in a game
3. Any of several tropical marine birds of the genus Sula (pelicans,
cormorants, etc)

I don't know of a New Zealand bird called a booby, but suspect it is a
gannet.

anyway, I haven't laughed so much all weekend! Hermine, sorry about your
boob (see 4 above, or maybe it should be 2 above).

and to get back to the subject, Sansevierias, we composted two today that
had not survived the winter - mason Congo and cylindrica.

cheers to all
