The Latest Ban – Boning.
The Latest Ban – Boning.
It had to happen; everything else that you might possibly enjoy has been banned.
Why would they allow boning to continue?
Obnoxio will be beside himself. I fear for his sanity.
Even those with 30 years experience of safe boning are not allowed to do so any more, and only the young who have been on a full health and safety course will be allowed to indulge.
Sainsbury’s – Butcher – banned from boning a leg of lamb in case he cut himself.
Had me worried for a minute, I’m no spring chicken, nor leg of lamb dressed up as mutton, so I suppose I can continue on my merry way for the time being!

Clearly the idea is to have whoever is cooking the Sunday dinner bone it him/herself, using a completely inadequate knife and with no skill nor experience.
In this way, we can ALL get involved with the hospitals, like Cam wants us to do.
I’ve actually seen someone remove his entire finger doing this (Dad was a butcher) and apparently it doesn’t hurt at the time. It does a few seconds later though, for a few seconds, before the unfortunate victim faints.

Ah, that kind of “boning” – I was getting worried there, but it’s still probably only a matter of time.

Probably the first tentative steps towards banning meat.

Disgraceful picture. This lamb has all four points of necessary contact off the ground instead of three secured and one in motion. It should never have been allowed outdoors until it had fulfilled the requirements of the Defra regulations relating to lamb and sheep self mobility activity in exterior locations. And where are all the required supervisors?

Demetrius… ah, but the animal in question comes under the Mythological and Flying Creatures Act of 2007, and is therefore outside the scope of Defra. I believe the Aviation Authority has jurisdiction. No supervisers are needed provided the lamb in question is qualified for solo flying.
Obviously, being a low-flying creature, today’s grounding of other aircraft is not applicable.
