It's not down to you or bunny though is it! There is plenty of lovely
veggie food choice, and simply no need to eat animals. So why do it?

England / Angelic Upstarts

The red in the flag is the blood that was spilt
In the way that your forefathers tell
And never a country has been so great
The stories Britannia could tell

I never want to live my life
Away from the golden shores
There's never a country in the world
With the scent of an English rose

England oh England a country so great
A land that's so fair and so true
There'll never be any colours like
The red the white and the blue

Whenever you go to a far off land
There's something goes with you
The pride and the joy and the love that comes
For your mother of red white and blue

You could never be born under a flag that's like
The one of the Union Jack
St.Georges spirit has never died
It all keeps coming back

Assuming it's burrowing and you can track it to the burrow then, if you're
patient enough (or hungry enough) to wait a few hours over the hole you can
often grab them by hand.

Cheerio,

Read what I wrote "*If* it came down.to me or fluffy bunny...". I don't
eat dead animals if I can avoid it but have no qualms about killing and
eating an animal if I had to.

There is plenty of lovely veggie food choice,

True enough provided the supermarket still has it on the shelves... If
they don't I won't last very long on a diet of grass, the rabbits do
though and I'll live a lot longer eating rabbit than grass.

and simply no need to eat animals. So why do it?

I don't as rule but would if I had to.

No if? I'll remind you of that when the oil runs out or there are more
fuel protests (not that the government will *ever* let that happen again).

No I wouldn't die, 'cause I'd eat the rabbits, of which there are hundreds
of the little buggers about round here.

Not in the middle of winter. Fine if you have plenty of warning that Mr
Tesco is going to have "supply problems" and can plan roughly a year in
advance and have enough suitable land available to plant.

I think you need to open your eyes to how close to the edge modern western
society is in regards to food and energy supplies. It's all "just in time"
the operative word being just.

You should see what happens if the delivery is late at one of your local
supermarkets. I've seen it happen a couple of times locally: some
breakdown and there's no bread. You can keep enough stock to cover such
odd days, but it was about half the daily bread supply for the town.

Ha! You've never had to grow onions in my raised beds then ...
and cauliflower's aren't much easier, in fact I don't bother any more.
And which vegetables apart from beans which can play havoc with your
digestion if eaten in quantities will provide protein, I mean the ones
in the UK?

yes, when you look at how much reserve stock is available in some towns, two
or three days cut off with snow would be a major issue

Hmmm...

More true than one would want to know about. Few people store more than
a few days of anything. Stocks of dried foods (flour, pulses etc) are
often zero these days.

A situation where vast areas of the country were cut off (eg 1963) would
actually be life threatening on a mass scale.

Also, people seem to hoard-buy things like bread rather than dried
foods.
