Right that's it

Saw less than 5 minutes of a Gordon Ramse(a?}y programme last night. Piglets, 7 to 9 weeks old being castrated without anaesthetic, even he looked shocked. The reasoning is that boar hormones mean their wee has a really strong smell. The little things screamed and screamed, and I am awake now because I heard them in my dreams. Pigs are clever, highly sentient. They think and they feel, unlike the chimpthings doing this to them.

Been vegetarian before, 5 years of it, though not properly as I never gave up fish. Not that healthy for me...surf and turf and sushi is the best kind of food for me cos I'm part crocodile. As of now, I am giving up all pork unless I know it has been farmed humanely. Bye bye bacon, bye bye sausages. I won't miss you a bit. I'll hear that sound in my head, and eat veggie burgers content.

Thank you for putting my mind at rest about some of the issues that have troubled me. It really helps. I'm certainly going to be careful about the source of my meat from now on.
