Selling direct from the carcass isn't the problem - it's the slaughterhouse rules that make it difficult. Unless the animal is slaughtered in a licenced, regulated, inspected, and up-to-the-latest-code official slaughterhouse, you can't sell it at all. And that's difficult because pigs are long animals, and the smaller houses (like our local one) have closed as a result - they would have to build an extension that was taller than the original building to legally continue (even sheep were a bit close for the local one).
And my local butcher passed away about three years ago - and no-one wanted to take over the business, so that's gone as well...

Sounds like a book title to me, "The Slaughterhouse Rules" by P.Griffin.

If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

We people often make new year resolutions in order to make our professional life better.
Lets create some resolutions to make your personal life and relationship better and stronger.
Some of them includes (IMHO):
1. Take my kids to Amusement park at least 2 times this year.
2. Give 4 surprise gifts to my wife.
3. Meet close friends personally every month.
4. Play with my kids minimum 1 hr every weekday.
If you are already doing it, its great. I realized that I failed to strengthen family/friends relationship last year due to over focusing on professional stuffs. I hope to balance it this time.
Life is a computer program and everyone is the programmer of his own life.

2. Give 4 surprise gifts to my wife. A waterbomb, itching powder, the bill for my weekend in Vegas, and a one way ticket to Greenland.
3. Meet close friends personally every month. To score free drinks, dinners, and anything else I can squeeze out of their wallets.
4. Play with my kids minimum 1 hr every weekday. They make great bowling balls!

Is 1024 x 768 enough as a new year's resolution?
[Sorry Mr. Griff]
Life is too shor

The old resolutions are the best, and should be recycled.
In this case, as firelighters...

Sure, if the year is 1997 or so.
I switched to 4K on my desktop this last year and there's no going back.

I know I was watching it on the news last night quite something else!
I came offshore on the 30th for 3 weeks, so having a 'dry' one....

Yeah, the only good news for the hotel staff and management was 1) nobody killed (just 16 hurt in that level of conflagration is impressive), and 2) it happened on New Years Eve, so the new year can only be better...

Personally I'd be content if it would just stop raining!

I'm sure there are a lot of people in the UK who feels the same!

People ask me where I'll be in five years. I tell them I don't know. I don't have 2020 vision.
Happy New Year!
