I can't imagine that otter mince would be very tasty anyway.


Actually there is such a thing called Otter Mince. It's fed to Otters (along with fish) in zoo's and wildlife parks etc. so it doesn't actually contain otter. They ain't no cannibals. It's made from meat, dog food and minerals and some other choice by-products.

But yea, like you said, can't imagine it tastes too good Confused

Iused to live in that neighbourhood too, though I was in the less posh environs of Erenkoy where we were sometimes known to mix our bread and spuds. Not like you posh folk. My Suadiye students used to adamantly tell me that Bagdat Cad was one of Istanbul's main bastions of high culture. Possibly related to the simplicity of carbohydrates there.

They probably did invent them. But then they forgot, like they 'forgot' about driving all the Greeks and Armenians out of Istanbul.

OOps Embarassed Controversial Surprised

Maybe that girl was racist! Confused We don't know wat she said. the Daily Mail always makes stories about how Polictical Correctness has gine mad! Surprised But then if you look more carefully its six of one half dozen of the other Confused

Like a story about NHS money to fund Braziliian panpipers. Shocked My mum read the headlines and just went ballistic Shocked But the story was that National lottery money went to the pan pipers who were paid to come over and play in hospitals. teh paper said it could have paid a nurse for a few months but that wasn't the same as talking NHS money Surprised Rolling Eyes

Unbelievable Rolling Eyes If a teacher says "Hmm, why don't they make blcak lego men" then next day it is the Daily Mail headline "PC GOES MAD AS TEACHER DEMANDS MULTIETHNIC LEGO!" Rolling Eyes

And that Richard Littlejohn will say, if they wnat black lego men then they should make their own in their own country Evil or Very Mad and anyway lego men are all yellow.

(Actually they do make blcak lego men now)
