I'd tape a jar of mint sauce to a car, myself...

Never killed any myself but used to be pretty good at butchering ones from farmer friends when they had unfortunate accidents

I'm a dab hand at skinning and jointing rabbits and pheasants, I guess it's just a matter of scale

Right, time to feed the cats, and then it will be time to feed me.

My wife was good at that. A bit of blood and guts did not put her off as she had brothers who were good poachers and we also sometimes got red deer staggering into the kitchen and dropping dead. Wild salmon and sea trout were also not uncommon and when I had creels we had lots of crabs, langoustine and a few lobsters as well as scallops from my diving. We ate well in those days.😊

I could do with a few of those muntjacs doing the same. Apparently the little sods are quite tasty. Must be, given how many of my roses and how much of my parsley that they've eaten...

I love seafood, but don't ask me to peel or dress it, as it does horrible things to my skin.

After work finishes tomorrow, I hope never to see another cactus ever again.

I've just been chatting with Madam Lexi. She says "naow".

My study of the Chevron B38 is almost finished - I should have it done in time for its driver's birthday on Saturday.

A nice would be a good thing right now.

A yellow one I would guess, based on images I have from about 10 years ago under its then owner when they were encouraged to run in original livery.

Out of solidarity with today's bin excitement, I've taken my recycling out.

Anywhere decent?

Yup. Guilty as charged, your honour.

Although I'm working in line & wash so it's monochrome, and I'm using a contemporary photo.

I suppose it may vary according to dose but I do not have medical knowledge so cannot comment on that. In my case the time between doses is 10 to 12 weeks. Certainly no closer than 10 weeks.
The injection in upper arm is usually but not always a bit painful. Not the needle going in but the actual fluid. I have a lot [ too much] experience of getting needles stuck in me but abdominal ones are usually painful.

Mrs. GA, who gets B12 regularly, (and is not Madonna)says she gets upper arm shots and they use a tiny needle and it does not hurt much. She is a little trooper, though, but she would say if it hurt.

Although I live in the northern Midwest, I live about 40 miles from soil sandy enough to have cactii

I used to keep cacti as a hobby.

Unfortunately, they do not like being watered with cat pee.

My late father also ruined a large part of my collection by watering them behind my back. He was that kind of a person.
