    Another reason to go get that shotgun license.

      If you’re going to grow veg on any realistic scale you’ll need a gun to shoot the rabbits and birds that nick the seeds and eat the crop, thereby providing two side benefits;
      - you can enjoyably eat the rabbits and birds
      - you can shoot chavs
      And what exactly is wrong with an "ad hominem" argument? Dodgy Agent, 16-5-2014

        I'm not sure what Waitrose does, I'm a Lidl man myself.
        They're going for expansion, now?
        Time to sell Waitrose shares I think.
        Bored.

            I'm going to form a mob, with burning torches and pitchforks and everything.

              Can I be a member of your angry mob please? I do enjoy a bit of pillaging.

                Electric fencing is cheap and easy to set up. Sure, you're *supposed* to run it off of a 12 volt battery or transformer....

                  If there are pheasants in your local woodland, you might entice them into your garden by taking a walk in the evenings and leaving a trail of chicken feed to your princely estate. It doesn’t work in one go, but after a while you’ll wake up in the morning to see a nice plump pheasant pecking around on the lawn. It isn’t technically poaching, seeing as the animal strayed onto your land.

                  If you live in the country, wood pigeons can be quite tasty, especially if you have the equipment for smoking pigeon breast.

                    The more the merrier. Can you tie a noose? Chequers is not far from me.

                      We used to make finger nooses at school; we were told nooses were illegal, so we did it as a symbolic defiance.

                      There are some good trees in cheddar for people to swing from.
