Otta

This one was on the Apprentice a year or 2 back, and I thought it looked brilliant for travel.

It's on Primetime, so is viewable, but I doubt anywhere will stay open to show it.

Probably because Khan can't help saying things like If people watch it, it's because they want to see him get knocked the f**k out. A shame, as it should be a cracker, but he just isn't very likable I'm afraid. I think it's the Bolton accent.

Doner kebab anyone?

Not half as many as East London though!

Wow, chill people.

For the record, I don't think battery hens have feeders to flock to. I think it is a large trough (so?) that is constantly topped up by machine, and they keep going to it, because that is their life. Not good, I know. Don't see one as better or words than the other though, and suspect you do strafer, simply because you're a well known good snob, who probably wouldn't touch dirty chicken with your worst enemy's barge pole.

If he has no support, businesses won't listen, so nor a problem. If be as lots of support then he has a mandate.

Or is it > something else which they aren't saying? The farm they talk about is clearly the best, and try to do things as nicely as possible. However, the bird still spends the final 3.5 weeks of it's 15 week life being force fed 3 times a day. More to the point though, as the article says, there is no doubt that the far less ethical farms are out there, and as long as the product is sold, these farms will exist (unless regulations change). Anyway, I'm just a hypocrite who has just enjoyed chicken & chips for ?2.50. >:D<

Matter of opinion I guess, but there is no MIGHT BE about it IMO, and your links don't prove otherwise for me. Thomas, if you decide to take on battery chicken farms, I suggest you avoid Newham.

I never equated them, O just called myself a hypocrite for going on about cruelty.

That video StraferJack posted just struck me as a man who likes good food trying to justify it to himself. It certainly didn't disprove any cruelty IMO. I wouldn't call people "evil" though.

I tried it once, when a friend ordered it at The Palmerston. Thought it tasted nice, but not so great as to justify the disgusting way that it's produced. Certainly not when you can get lovely pates that don't involve such cruelty. This and veal are both wrong IMO. However, I'm a hypocrite, as I do enjoy the odd KFC, and the way that chicken are farmed for these places is just as cruel really. Read "Two Caravans" by Marina Lewycka for a horrific insight (told in a funny way).

Would that be acceptable? No it wouldn't be acceptable, and I understand what you're saying, but this is just trash TV, I don't think it's worth etting particularly upset about.

Great idea Kimmy. Tend to agree with Moos regarding having little ones session, and slightly bigger ones session.

She's just acting up, no big harm as far as I can see. Whoever made the video, and added that nonense at the end, is the real tw@t.

I could be wrong, but I thought it was given to her by Dulwich Collge.

You'd have thought a different username would have been wise, in order to trick people in to clicking a link. Can someone clued up on these things explain, is this likely to be a bot, or a human who's Job it is to spam webaites?

"As things stand all they are guilty of is words on a street corner and that is NOT an offence." Threatening behaviour too surely? I get what you're saying here DJKQ, perhaps it wasn't the wisest thing to do, but come on FFS, who hasn't wanted to do exactly what the jogger did, at one time? Good work that man.

I think the occasional page is genius, but the majority is just meh.

You did, and he's never actually gotten round to so much as looking at it.

Have you finished AC2 yet? That's a game that I do quite like, but get bored of quite quickly, and have to come back to. I used to be the type who would never move on to another game until I'd finished one, but have about 5 on the go now. Piers, I'll give dragon age a go this week, as I've only had one quick session with it, but if I'm not getting on with it, you're welcome to see how you get on.

I got dragon age origins second hand a couple of weeks ago. Not sure I can arsed with it though. Still have GTA4 to play, but it hasn't exactly grabbed me. Really want LA Noir, but will probably wait til the price drops a bit.

I've picked it up a few times in the shop and been tempted. Having read that rave, I think I'll go for it on pay day.

Not disagreeing. As I said, you probably did the right thing.
