Peter, we went to a friends house for Christmas lunch one year & the son had been anointed as the killer of the turkey. Well he was a 1st year medical student so he dispatched it with an injection of anaesthetic, then it was cooked. No one could eat it as it tasted so bad. He admitted what he had done, all concurred said he had done the right thing though not knowing the outcome. There was sea food & chicken with lamb so none of us went hungry that year.

Hi shipmates, Hi john pruden There was a pub in Cardiff a few years ago, if you left you beer on a table or bar, and went to the toilet some one would nick it, so I bought a large plastic house fly{Look very real} from the joke shop, and put in in my beer it worked that stop the tea leafs !!!! But I used to have some right comments when i took it out and put it in my mouth.
