Ms Marple Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 I'm still here too. I haven't got the stomach for that kind of event. Couldn't even dissect my rat at school when everyone else was loving it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

craftyhunnypie Posted April 25, 2009 Author Share Posted April 25, 2009 Hi everyone! I used to work in Pathology. I couldn't do it these days. I couldn't do what they are doing to a chookie, even if it didn't have a name I couldn't kill a chicken. If ever that day arrives due to severe illness, then I'd get someone else to do it & take the chook away so I didn't know about it. I have 4 cockerels that live the life of luxury. They get treated the same as my girls - pets! We don't eat chicken in any shape or form! Imagine removing the giblets. I never liked that when I was little - mum buying a chicken for Sunday lunch & having to remove a little bag of bits. Wonder how many of them felt like eating cake afterwards..or is that a daft question? Emma.x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chook n Boo Mum Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 Probably a daft question.....cake is always acceptable in my book probably explains why I joined WW!!! I'm in & out but still about ! Sha x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Egluntyne Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 Wonder how many of them felt like eating cake afterwards..or is that a daft question? All of us! To a man. Interestingly, we were all starving when we had finished! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ms Marple Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 I am here but have just spend some time in the garden supervising some squabbles. Just doing a little revision for the Quiz Night tonight now! So no guessing what your specialist topic is then!!! Chickenkeeping? The Three Omleteers and other such classic tales?

Egluntyne Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 I live 2 nanoseconds away from the course venue. It was excellent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ms Marple Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 No chucking up or heaving??? Good job I declined methinks as would not have wanted to be the source of alternative humour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

poachedegg Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 I'm back too! I was the same as Egluntine - came out of the course and was starving. But then set off at 9 and didn't finish the course until 3 ish. Never imagined in a million years that I would be going on a course and killing a chicken....and go through with it.

Lesley Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 Glad it all went well! When we did just the gutting and boning part we went on to visit Christian.....and had no difficulty in eating the yummy cheese scones he'd made for us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
