Subject: RE: BS: 'free vote' about fox hunting?
"Ostrich or Kangeroo,"
Gorge beginning to rise steadily
As a lifelong meat eater I have occasionally toyed with vegetarianism but have failed miserably
Venison is forever a no-no, but the thought of adding more creatures to our death list fills me with horror.
Closest I ever got to joining the V set was on the opening night of BBC TV 4 when the first film they showed was 'The Animal Film' - a horrific peep into the dark world of animal-to-food slaughter - lasted about a week
More recently, the sight of a large lobster scuttling through a Lake Garda restaurant, having escaped the clutches of a cook who was intent on plunging it into a boiling pan of water nearly did the trick, but my hypocrisy got the better of me.
Too old to change now.
I must say I find the idea of amateur hunting to eat every bit as disgusting as fox hunting
Anybody who can afford a gun can afford a humanely slaughtered cut of meat
