Nice to hear from you again and to see that you are still pondering life's little mysteries, while we poor bu**ers in the uk are sliding around in masses of white 'orrible stuff.

As to pigs, the same thing used to happen up here in rural Scotland. It all went out of fasion before my time, but I remember my parents talking about it. The house I grew up in as a child still had the pig-sty in the back garden, and you could still see the marks in the ceiling where the hooks to hold the hams had been.

Looking at those pictures is making me fancy a bacon sarnie!

When I was young, I can remember two families would buy a pig between them and halve it. Tails, ears and trotters were a delicacy to (some) members of my family. Never mind making brawn from the brains etc. Nothing wasted.

Most kids today would chuck up if their meat didn't come in a polystyrene tray.

Not waffle : True life !
The pig slaughter bring me back to the sixties (I was like the little boy on the wall).
I never ate so good meat since then.
You were fortunate to be able to mix for such a party with locals !

I think killing an animal like that is barbaric and cruel.

I thought we lived in a cultured civilised society that respected the lives of other humans and animals.

Civilisation moves on and behavior like that is not in my mind acceptable.

Killing in abatoires is probably no better.

I'll stick to not eating meat.

>>> I think killing an animal like that is barbaric and cruel... Killing in abatoires is probably no better. I'll stick to not eating meat.

I'll respect your view that, as I vegetarian, you deplore any killing of animals. But this animal had plainly enjoyed a free range existence. In terms of cruelty to animals, I'd say factory farming is far worse than this.

I do accept that killing of animals is going to happen. Factory farming is often horrendous but the actual killing of animals can be more humane with instantaneous death rather than a fine animal bleeding to death. EEC regulations sometimes should be welcomed?
