Failed to walk on water!
Yep - the mud in Norfolk may look shallow, but you cannot walk across it.

Rabbit going into the oven
Thanks to Hallum, we have a rabbit. We also had a skinning demo, here is how it starts, it get's gross soon after, so I will spare you that bit. It is a bit like chicken, but this one was really tough, so I reckon he/she will have to cook longer.
Big thanks for this one, apparently they are not regular visitors in the Roses' kitchen.

Would e-voting improve turnout?
The answer is NO "£$%"$£%^£" NO. http://www.pcg.org.uk. I'm sorry but I think we need a pragmatic look at this question,
1. The timing of the question is supect.
2. It will only temporarily make a difference.
3. It will waste more money setting it up.
4. Security will be a huge concern on my own part at least.
Anyone who say it is a good idea is a gadget freak (and hence is unwittingly skewing the results anyway by simply reading this) and not applying the same scepticicism we professionals did that actually brought calm and sanity in a world that believed (was more let to actually...) that Y2K would cause critical service failures.
I am sorry, but the people who are failing to vote due to apathy should not be voting by convenience instead!
