    Is this the one:

    Take two damp cloths, a glass (or mouthful equivalent) of wine, 1tbs olive oil.... oh - and a bunny rabbit......Stir fry for..........

    I wouldn't bother - tried it - too hard to digest.


    you're over cooking the rabbit if you find it hard to digest.

    (And the bunny kept jumping out of the wok)

    put carrots in wok first, wait for bunny to notice them, them slam a lid on it.

    Hi every 1. I know this is a bit cheeky, but does anyone have a wooden
    swinging crib that they no longer have a need for. My family seem to be
    growing and I cant keep up with them anymore.

    Question, how many people can you fit into a swinging crib?

    I have been doing freecycle for a couple of months nowand I think it has a wonderful philosophy. The only word of warning is watch out for traders disguised as individuals, I dont mind giving stuff away to someone else living in my community that need something and appreciate it, but I do resent traders using the site as a way of making money for nothing!!!! its difficuly to prove, but when people turn up in a van with loads of stuff already in, or you see them selling at a car boot, you have a fair idea about their motives!!!!

    Very true - I'd agree there. I try and weed out what I think are 'genuine' replies to my 'offered' ads, but at the end of the day will not know for sure whether the item will end up on a stall somewhere at a carboot or on ebay.
    On the whole though, I feel I've given my stuff to people with genuine motives. And - I've received some useful stuff (nothing expensive) which is being used at home.

    well that's just vicious.
    think of a poor lettuce in a field, soaking up the sun (?) drinking up the water and then WHACK, some bu99er chops its head off and stuffs in a plastic bag.
    After torturous conditions it thinks it has been rescued, only to be cut up even more and have salt and acidic liquids poured over the cuts and then you eat it!!!! at least the rabbit can run away (well, a bit)
