Sorry, getting on my high horse but the 3 lifestyle alternatives of a british bull calf are

1. being shot at birth

2. being transported to the continent in horrible travel conditions when too young to be away from their mothers only to live in tiny crates before being dished up as foreign veal

3. having a far better life on a british farm, most being allowed to live in a field before being sold as british veal.

Now obviously no options are really attarctive but i'd say 3. is the most appealing if you were a cow, bobo?

[bobo the clown]

So, ultimately dead in all 3 then, yes ??

[Gooner Girl]

So, ultimately dead in all 3 then, yes ??

well yes, but would you rather have been killed at birth or lived a horrible life before being killed or a nice life before being killed?

[bobo the clown]

Would I have an opinion ?

[Gooner Girl]

Would I have an opinion ?

Oh yes, you're a very intelligent cow in this particular scenario.

Cows are sentient beings anyway.

Just buy british next time and make a girl happy eh?!

Expecting the wench home any minute with a 14" asda deli pizza, damn straight.

[Annoyed Grunt]

Just got back from Ciao Baby in Egerton....all the family there for my birthday.....really nice.

[General Mannerheim]

So how come you still type straight!?

[CAPSLOCK]

Expecting the wench home any minute with a 14" asda deli pizza, damn straight.

Not had one for a while, may have to make the effort

Asda still do the best supermarket pizza, but been left behind by Morrison's chicken vindaloo in the curry stakes

Try one

Felicini was very, very good... The starter Cicchetti gave a real variety of tastes - all delicious - and we augmented with additional olives and anchovies...

The mains were exceptional - I had hake, my partner linguine with shellfish, friends had pasta dishes (both, reportedly, excellent).

None of us could manage pudding.

We had two bottles of wine and a couple of beers, and, including tip, hit £120... Good food, good booze, good company, 30 quid apiece...

Nice... very...

Wife's making Tortilla Espanola right now. Smells lovely but I've been warned away till it's done.

You need some gambas ajillo and big loaf of bread and a bottle of rioja to go with that

And octopus or squid and a bottle of chilled Albarino from Galicia (£7.99 at Sainsbury - and very good!).

You're just teasing me now. About £10 for the worst stuff that they can find here. Wouldn't even pass as vinegar for your chips

In Sudan they had 'sherry' made from dates.

Thar was an 'interesting' drink.

And, also from dates, an illegal but readily available arak that tasted like a combination of gin and petrol.

I've a bottle of date 'wine' in the fridge that someone gave us 4 or 5 months ago. I can't bring myself to try it. Hate dates.
