I can't stand the flavour of rabbit, duck, pheasant etc. I'm not great with meat in general. It's a texture thing mostly. Don't even really like steak, but can stomach it if it's not 'bouncy'.

I love rabbit. The first time I had it I was a teenager and staying at a friend’s house. As an adult I buy it whenever I see it though haven’t seen any in butchers lately. I agree the little bones are a nuisance but so they are in chicken.I was walking my dog yesterday morning and I spotted 3 baby rabbits. I thought that if circumstances were such that I needed to feed myself during difficult times I would try to catch rabbits and breed them. I would survive!13

Here we go again. I see that Morrison's is the first to limit the number of some items per customer in their stores ...

Waitrose were limiting the loo roll to 2 per customer starting yesterday14

I wonder what the other items will be, A*da have never lifted the max of 3 on their own plum tomato's. What I found really difficult at the start was when T limited it to 80 items only per shop and I was having to shop for 2 households (7 people and a cat), I really hope that doesn't happen again our milk counted as 8 items, not that I shop there as such, I just hope other stores don't do that either.
I read that some pharmacies are limiting flu jabs to people that need them to start with as supplies are running low already, I haven't booked ours yet.
Also saw the news article about potentially 7000 lorries parked up for Brexit, this winter is going to be a long one!14 -
