I'd like to know what these people eat?

Shit?

It's a natural byproduct of life and there's plenty of it to go round.

Oh no, they can't do that, it would be depriving dung beetles of their vital sustenance.

They certainly seem pretty full of it

As a member of our local U3A I joined their Discussion Group, which I found to be monopolised by two ladies who were into the 'animal welfare' thing and always got the subject round to this. One meeting we started discussing the Iraq invasion and one of these ladies said she thought Blair and Bush were'wonderful' to invade Iraq. When I asked mildly why she considered it right to invade another nation that was found to be no threat, she said; 'Well, those Moslems deserve everything they get, have you seen how they treat animals?'
No how's that for logic?

Like Alan - and probably most of us on this site - I too am concerned about animal welfare, but I've always been curious to know what animal rights people do when they are ill or have some form of health emergency. Large numbers of medical drugs have been tested on animals

[richard p]

jb who are you trying to kid..... logic and feminine are two words that just dont go together...

[JohnN]

Yes, OK I know we are just being jokey, but I don't go along with cracks about women not being logical. I have a woman doctor and when she prescribed a cream to rub into a certain part of my anatomy I said that I thought that if I was under BUPA the doctor would have rubbed it in for me. Her reply was totally logical - "On yer bike".

[Chantal]

Oh for God's sake, I've not had my breakfast yet and I think I may just well go without.

I'm logical. I'm female. What's your point boys (and I want no comment from Richard about his!)?

[richard p]

on reflection i was a bit harsh, perhaps i should have said there's normal logic and whats known as feminine logic which bears little relation to the normal sort and no bloke is clever enough to understand it, or perhaps i should just stop digging
and why shouldnt i comment on mine if i want to?

is everybody enjoying half term?

[peter]

......is everybody enjoying half term?

London buses in the morning are nice for a week.
Got friday off so I could be said to be going to enjoy half term.

[Tigger]

Stop digging Richard

[Chantal]

Don't be a spoilsport Tigger, he'd not only DUG the hole he was in, he'd starting filling it in too!
