Hey, I wanna hang out at Hedgewitch's - good music :mrgreen: If I come to yours and lounge around all day listening to music, will you bring me biscuits and wine regularly? I'll bring some Paul Weller, Amy Winehouse, Nick Cave, Richard Hawley, Robert Wyatt, Led Zep, The Killers, Kings of Leon, Kazab...

We normally eat exclusively vegetarian although OH will sometimes eat rabbit etc. and we both sometimes eat oily fish. Neither rabbits nor fish are vegetables. Therefore you don't "normally eat exclusively vegetarian". If you say you do to other meat-eaters it's very confusing for them wh...
