To be fair roast pig cooked on a spit is delicious and the little piglets should be delighted its not them. Perspective is required.

 Well if they wait a year or so, it will be them, at least they’re getting life experience a-hard-days-night-paul-7

Perhaps the piglets might even participate in the pig-on-spit festivities! Clutching forks and knives all the while, naturally.

Mam was telling me last year, somebody didn’t spear the pig properly so they didn’t release all of the gas or whatnot and it exploded on the spit (I find that hilarious).

Not sure if seeing a pig explode would be funny or horrendous. The thought is but it would be gross.ahdn_paul_01

 

Seeing a fellow pig be roasted should only give the other little Piggies a greater determination to live their lives to the full. Really its doing them a service in giving them a year of pre-warning.

Maybe, but you dont have some nice juicy roast pig to eat when cooked. 

Still not as nice as bacon tho. Tho i doubt much is.

An exploding pig should never happen. They must have been spit-roasting an ungutted pig, and that would be inedible. You always remove the intestines because they can cause poisoning. If those are removed, there are no gasses left in the body. To spit roast a pig, it should always be fully gutted.

I used to enjoy air travel. Now, it’s just a great big boil on my ass. You have to get to the airport a week before your flight takes off just to find a parking space, then get through security where the screener looks at your ID photo suspiciously because it was taken years ago (I got a haircut or 50 since then, bitch!), then proceed to place all of your personal items on a thieve’s buffet line and practically disrobe so they can X-ray you in a vulnerable position while the bag screener sifts though your suitcase and fondles your undies with God -only-knows what disease he has on his hands from fondling the bag before yours. Once through that marvelous experience, you are herded (I swear I hear mooing) into the plane where you have to contort your body into 2 square inches of space unless you want to pay 15 times the amount of your ticket and give up a kidney for a first class ticket just to get free cookies and champagne.

In short, no.

Well it’s good the pig exploded then! Nobody likes food poisoning!

You’ll love Irish airports, they never really check your passports (I know many people who have put down their sons’/daughters’ passports down by accident and they got let through a-hard-days-night-john-7). In the majority of them you can get from check-in to take-off in about 20 minutes (Shannon airport, here’s looking at you!) and you don’t have to take your shoes off at security (yay!).

Oooo, oooo, oooo! I am now the proud owner of a Hong Kong Octopus card. It came in a very nice letter with some little surprises.

Thank you, @trcanberra and @HongKongLady!

Awesome, glad you like it – I was starting to worry that I had accidentally forgotten to send it by air mail and that it would end up going via a slow boat to China – where it came from in the first place.

Maybe it stopped of for tea at Ringo’s Octopus’s Garden and for a siesta in the Yellow Submarine .

I placed the card in my official Oyster travel card wallet* right by my Oyster card and Walrus card.

*the one I sweet-talked @Ron Nasty into giving to me…and I gave him a Beatles one that I bought at the Beatles store in London. I bought mysel a Beatles one too. I carry both travel card wallets in my purse.
