Flick75 32 Posted January 3, 2012 Report Share Posted January 3, 2012 Totally agree with you. I was chatting to a neighbour recently and he was raging about a nearby shoot, saying how cruel it was and how it made him sick. I pointed out that he and his wife served grouse at their Xmas party, as the main course! We were there. He couldn't understand why I challenged him on it and kept saying "yes, but I didn't kill them". What an idiot. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Nik_B 3,790 Posted January 3, 2012 Report Share Posted January 3, 2012 The image, which appeared just over a week ago, depicted a rustic-looking Ms Allen brandishing a shotgun in the countryside with a number of dead game birds on the bonnet of her car. Brandishing! WTF??? Definition of BRANDISH transitive verb 1 : to shake or wave (as a weapon) menacingly 2 : to exhibit in an ostentatious or aggressive manner Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Makes for a better read for its impressionable readers, than 'Holding a shotgun' More shame on the press........ Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Extremetaz 15 Posted January 4, 2012 Report Share Posted January 4, 2012 Load of bollox in the Herald today with their motoring columnist speculating that Audi will be none too impressed with the association of their Q7 (which they gave her it seems) and field sports. Tell ya this much - I've a hell of a lot more time for the woman now - will definitely be keeping an eye out for more game recipies from her. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Keep your expectations of her up mate as she never apologized! I read about 400 odd posts between her photo and what she wrote today on Facebook and its good to see that 99% of the posts were sensible and more importantly backing her! Here is what she wrote: Two issues have arisen, which I think I ought to address; The first relates to the below post of a photograph to accompany a recipe for Game Terrine. This page is an information outlet for food-related topics only and I have always tried to include information relating to the recipes or events featured, both to promote them and contextualize them. The origin or sourcing of food has been a long-held interest and concern of mine and I have gone to great lengths in my current series to trace the provenance of food and respect it. No objection was raised to showing pigs being sourced for chorizo, or sheep for a curry dish, for example. The second issue relates to the linking of the Facebook posting both to fox hunting generally and the meeting of a local hunt at Ballymaloe House in particular. Firstly, I should point out that I have no interest in fox hunting of any kind and I am not aware of any association between family members and fox hunting. Secondly, the lands at Ballymaloe House and Ballymaloe Cookery School are and for generations, have been, preserved. This means that no hunting of any kind takes place on the farmlands. Thirdly, the hunt traditionally meets at Ballymaloe House on New Year’s Day only, since long before I was born. The welcome of Ballymaloe House is world famous and we are always anxious, when we can, to uphold that traditional country hospitality. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
