This is a cruel sport!! Fox hunting should be banned, in my opinion, because it can lead to helpless foxes being killed, this is not always the case, but it has happened. Should we let this cruel “sport” continue? It is estimated that around 20,000 foxes are killed each year through fox hunting; I don’t think that this should be allowed to continue! I know that foxes can be a pest, especially to farmers, but in today’s society cant we find alternative solutions to this problem rather than killing the fox?

I regret that I was brought up in the country and accepted hunting in ignorance but Foxes are creatures therefore must suffer. If you have good husbandry there should be no need to hunt them if precautions are taken to keep them away from livestock.

mzria brought this up in one of her opinions, and i did a poll on it ages ago when i was still polling - i think the world is divided into those who eat up their bread crusts and those who throw them out or give them to the birds or ducks, or possibly use in cooking. I love crusts, think it is the best part of a loaf. As kids we were always told to eat our crustsup to make our hair curly! Are you a crust eater and if not, how do you use them??

Yes, I actually prefer nice crisppy french bread, but l'anglais cannot get it right.

Do you have older siblings? did they bully you a little when you were all quite small? My older sisters used to tell me Jack Frost or Billy Wind would get me, so i would run home and then they didnt have to drag a little sister around with them.They always used to say, Its a pity isnt it and i would always fall for it and ask, What is??? and they would say shaking thier heads sadly and in soft kind voices, 'that you are adopted'....one of them told me jam roly poly was pig's head so she could eat my share...but if anyone as much as glanced sideways at me they would rush to my defence and always wanted to fight my battles for me...were you a meanie big sister/brother or were you on the receiving end like me??

useful to learn from their mistakes, company early on. I had an older bro. Criminal fiend
