You would not believe the amount of people asking me for fairtrade wine over xmas. FFS get a grip have you ever seen a poor vintner its not like they are into slave labour is it ...

 

In common with other estate workers, some workers in the wine industry do get a rough deal. South African wineries in particular came in for a lot of stick over a little while back. The DOP payment method was a kind of legacy of the slave system.

I did shed a couple of tears honest,is it legal to have your own chickens in your backgarden ?

i would feed mine jolly green giant corn and they would live in mini apartments :innocent:

 

Yeah, it's perfectly legal. I believe some local authorities have restrictions, especially on cocks due to the noise problem. I keep a few in my small yard and rotate them every few years when they slow down. When we do hatch most years and raise the cocks as well until the letters start to arrive from the council about noise complaints, we then cull any cocks and eat them. You don't need a lot of space, in fact a mate of mine in Romania keeps 2 on the balcony of his 5th floor flat, and what's more they are having a much better life than the ones you saw last night.
