They even look tasty!
Lovely dappled scales and all that. I forgot to take a photo, but was pleased with a sign outside the only independent butcher left in town "Meat Shortage Due! Please Panic Buy!" Made me grin widely. 'Cept I won't buy from them after that butcher was very rude to me the other year. Explanation if needed: (Not of his rudeness, of the sign) Panic buying ensued at petrol pumps after tanker drivers threatened a strike. Like a run on a bank, the panic was fuelled [sic] by word of mouth, irresponsible media coverage and a laughable Govt response which advised people to buy and store fuel (?!) in jerry cans. Which is illegal and can be highly dangerous.

Well, I won't pay for it anyway. I'd have taken a pound of sausage if he'd slipped it to me gratis.
