Thanks Lydia,

Yeah... it kinda makes you feel less centred on yourself trawling through blogs doesn't it. That actually everyone else is just the same as you. And there's a little bit of Dear Diary about it too, except you have that audience to comment on what you saying. Ground you when you float too high and pick you up when you fall more…

When I was a secondary school kid I went to a school that ran a small farm and used it to educate its children. R.E.S it was called - Rural and Environmental Studies. Taught by a Mr Field in an amusing coincidence. It was a fairly blunt affair - there was no hiding what happened to the lambs in spring (gathering nuts in May really does have differe more…

I agree entirely. I assume gassing with argon is done to save the dispatchers having to take extra precautions - it must feel like drowning to the birds I imagine. But hey, they are only 120,000 bits of disposable underage meat - not sentient creatures.

Factory farming is the reason I only eat meat sometimes - I save up to buy humanely more…
