I once worked in a supermarket butchery department, so I'd know how to cut up pork chops. I don't know how easy/hard it is to kill a pig (or lamb) though.

What skills could you bring to a "Survivors" scenario?
Speaking gibberish on internet talkboards since last Michaelmas. Plus here on Twitter -
i'm pretty sure i can gut, skin and clean any animal
As for killing them... my survival is more important than theirs
catching the little bastards is a different matter though!Coffee's for closers -

killing lambs or sheep is easy enough, provided you have the right equipment. A stout pair of wellies and a blue-vein-thrombosis should just about do it, just sh@g the buggers to death.Originally posted by MrMark View PostI once worked in a supermarket butchery department, so I'd know how to cut up pork chops.

I know that there is at least one person who posts here who is an expert, although its best to tread carefully as he can be a touch irritable

I think when it comes to survival, most people could chop up an animal to eat. They may not do it most efficiently or cleanly, but they would.Originally posted by MrMark View PostI once worked in a supermarket butchery department, so I'd know how to cut up pork chops.
