	Hilta gave the previously earthbound [[Granny Weatherwax]] her [[Broomstick\|broomstick]] to help her chase down [[Eskarina Smith\|Esk]] on their way to [[Ankh-Morpork]], although she may have thought it was only a loan. This device was described as "a split-window Morris Minor" among brooms, and has foiled Dwarf mechanics ever since, but it continues to serve Granny well, if eccentrically.

	[[wikipedia:Pennyroyal\|Pennyroyal]] is a naturally occurring plant found extensively throughout the British Isles and mainland Europe. It has been known and used medicinally for thousands of years, and today, in the complementary practice of aromatherapy, practitioners are very seriously and strictly advised to ensure it is '''not''' used on pregnant women. The reason for this is that it is a known abortifacient - it induces miscarriages. (For this reason, generations of wise women and witches of the [[Nanny Ogg]]/Hilta Goatfounder inclination have prescribed it as a naturally occurring "morning-after pill", to ensure that potentially-in-trouble young women may be able to sow their wild oats in March, but not bring forth harvest nine months later. Hence the Pennyroyal Preventatives. (Be aware that pennyroyal is a hepatotoxin; attempts to use it as an abortifacient still cause the occasional fatality.)
