An up date

As already mentioned when the fridge packed up we were left with about 80kilos (176 lbs) of meat that had to be dumped. So yesterday I took it up to the allotment and left it for the foxes and rats and birds and cats and such and when I went to check today, found that they had scoffed the lot.

The local vermin may be a manky lot, but by Gum they have healthy appetites.

In honour of your new found vegetarianism, if you supply me with a mailing address I will send you some tofu and some lettuce, along with some self righteous books written by animal rights fanatics.

Can't say fairer than that. lol

Keep the lettuce and tofu, but I could do with some more self righteousness. I mentioned the news has gotten out and family and friends have gotten even more pompous than before.:)

And knowing you the fridge is probably as old as you has been making funny noises for a while and you've thought sod it it'll be ok. :D  :P

And producing strange smells, which is a bit like me as well.:)

Not for any moral reason you will be glad to know, but because the fridge has packed up. So all the chops and chicken and mince and such will be taken to the allotment to feed the foxes and crows and rats and better class of resident. There is some bacon that might be a bit too salty for the wildlife so I will put it through my mate instead. He is a good lad with a stomach of brass and if he ain't a few nights in the Royal Free will do him the world of good. And the milk is sitting on the window ledge so we won't be reduced to drinking black coffee and a few vestiges of civilisation will remain.

My only problem is that I might bump into other vegetarians and let slip that I have joined their obscene cult and they might want to be friends and to be honest, I don't think that I can take that.

We are not all in the same boat. We are in the same storm. Some of us have yachts. Some of us have canoes. Some of us are drowning.

I was largely vegetarian in my undergraduate days, again not for any moral reason, I was too bloody skint to afford meat.
