I promise the following is not a joke.......a butcher near us received a warning from Powys trading standards over their Welsh Dragon sausages because the name might cause confusion and they wanted them to specify that they were actually pork:wacko:
Your breakfast sounds lovely Vernon, I was going to try and have something healthy but I think I'm going to have to get the frying pan out now.

The trading standards person that dreamt up that bollocks should be sacked. Why can't our country function without knobbers like them?

It usually transpires that there's a core of common sense at the heart of these "gone mad" stories that the media are so fond of, but this one (six years old) does seem to be the lovechild of jobsworths.

A spokesman for Powys Council said: "The product Welsh Dragon Sausage was not sufficiently precise to inform a purchaser of the true nature of the food.

"I don't think anyone would imagine that dragon meat was being used but we would not want vegetarians to buy the sausages believing they were meat free.

By the sounds of things, although the label specified that they were pork sausages, the Council wanted that information to be included in the name as well.

A more restrained day for us, sensible food and easy on the booze, as tomorrow we are off to Leeds for the big family do.

The sun is actually shining here :sun:

Chilled out today. Stayed over at my brothers house on Christmas Day, got cooked a full fry up this morning, home, quick tidy and made 'Christmas soup' out of the left over veg, then went for a walk just before the rain hit. Now chilling out, watching films.

So not real Welsh Dragons then? Right, that's it, I'm off to my friendly Trading Standards Officer!;)
