Malt 379 Posted September 15, 2008 Report Share Posted September 15, 2008 no, he's right actually, have a mate who runs a butchers, the rabbits are imported from there, as they are cheaper than english ones Same story with everything in this fecking county Stubby, we've got plenty of what we need on our doorsteps, but it's cheaper to get it from abroad. Everything's arse about face here, Pembrokeshire new potatoes are bloody expensive in the shops round here, but I've seen them for sale in supermarkets in England, a lot cheaper.

TRUE SAXON 108 Posted September 15, 2008 Report Share Posted September 15, 2008 As the saying goes you get what you pay for and as already pointed out chinese rabbits tend to be smaller and have less meat on them BRITISH is always best Quote Link to post Share on other sites
