Ooooh, shush Ricky - don't let the workers hear you.


Offal is the only good honest food - meat (as in muscle) was only for rich kids, not good honest toilers.


These are all offal:


Faggots (liver and cheek)

Black Pudding (blood)

Pork Pie (feet)

Tripe (guts)

Steak and Kidney Pie

Luncehon Meat (Tongue)

Liver

Brawn (pigs head)

Haggis (liver, heart and lungs)

When you meat eaters actually think about what you are eating, does it not put you off just a teeny weeny bit?

Are you saying that vegetarians are not as fanciable as meat eaters?


Do we look different or something?


Interesting comment, because if you do a bit of research, you will find that eating meat is actually bad for you.

So if you go for a veggie partner, chances are, they will live longer!

A disproportionate number of vegetarians that I know look a little anaemic. It's not a criticism, just saying like.


Unfortunately by dint of their restricted diet, veggies do need to be slightly over fastidious, which isn't very attractive.


I have the same slightly lowered attraction for my friends of various faiths here in Singers who have arbitrarily imposed dietary restrictions.


So yeah, I guess, not as fanciable. :(

So veggies live longer, with uglier partners. Not much of a consolation for missing-out on meat is it.

If we're not supposed to eat animals, why are they made of meat ?

Yes of course they are Tom, but there's laws against eating people, I think from memory the term coined for the pastime was 'cannibalism', I'm not sure what the law against it is called though I'm sure some bright spark here will have time to find the details on WWW.


I haven't seen any laws saying don't eat (non-human) meat, though clearly if you get in charge things may change rapidly, so I'll be practicing making nut roast leading up to Christmas, just in case.


If I did take your point literally, I don't think it'd go down well in court if I try to justify taking someone's leg and roasting it for tea by arguing, "..well it IS meat, sir" !

Tops.


I wonder if we'd get 20 pages of comment on these boards if Franklins was serving human flesh ?

Probably 5-6 pages I reckon.

True, but most humans are meat-eaters, and so would not be good to eat.


In case of a plane crash in a remote area, always eat the vegetarians first. Then, the airline meals.

    • What "stricter" consequences could there be for shoplifting (or any other crime) than being put into jail, do you think? Though our prisons are of course full enough already, without more people being shoehorned  into them.
    • Returning to the original question, I had my jabs at Tessa Jowell yesterday. I was early and I was  seen on time, and it was a lovely pharmacist who did them, but the admin beforehand (not by her) was a bit iffy. I was given forms to fill in but not told what to do with them afterwards, so I  presumed I had to take them into the consulting room, as the rest was supposed to be filled in by a clinician, but no! After some time had elapsed and I had found a seat (there was no information on where to sit either, so people were sitting in two separate areas, neither of which had many seats) my name was called and  the forms were taken behind the counter. Be aware if you don't have an appointment - even in the relatively short time I was there, three people turned up without appointments having been sent there by a GP (I presume) or having  previously been  asked by the pharmacy to come  back at a different time, and they were all sent away again because the pharmacy didn't have enough flu vaccine until the following day. I have no idea if this was due to a misunderstanding on the people's side, their GP's or the pharmacy's, but none of them were very happy, and one lady said she "couldn't keep coming back" 😭  At least one of them didn't seem to understand what he was being told, possibly due to a language issue. I felt quite sorry for the pharmacist, who was giving jabs all day on top of her usual workload but still managing to stay cheerful! Though she wasn't the one dealing with the unhappy people! I have a sore arm from the Covid jab (I chose to have the jabs in different arms), but no other ill effects so far, touch wood. 
    • Line speed and the strength of your Wi-Fi signal are two separate things.  The first is determined by the type of connection (fibre/copper etc) to the outside world and the second is the connection between the device (printer/TV/laptop/tablet etc) and the router. If you are connecting a device to the router using cables (as Alec1 is) then this is will give the best possible connection but isn't practical for many without a degree of upheaval and even then not all devices (tablets for example) will allow a wired connection. So you relying on the quality of the Wi-Fi signal from the router to the device and this will depend on the quality of the router, the type of Wi-Fi connection (the frequency), line of sight etc - many different things.  This is why some people opt for a "mesh" type setup which is supposed to give a solid quality of Wi-Fi signal around the house with little or no blackspots.  It's expensive though and still requires the devices that send and receive the signal (like the plug-ins you have) to be wired to the router.
    • We have had a few cat flaps over the years but none have been electronic. They just have a small clip that you turn to lock or open.  Some come with a magnet and a matching magnet that the cat wears on its collar  This prevents other cats entering.  I've not used these as I don't like the idea of a cat wearing a collar. Cats do like to be out at night and you need to encourage yours to return after a late evening sortie. Calling,rustling treat wrappers worked for ours but he seems to have now got into the habit of coming back about 9pm. without this.
