The Megathread - Idle Banters Virtual Bar

There is a point that you have all missed, WB has said about choice. The choice shouldn't be to buy them or not. But to have halal meat and a un-halal meat choice. Untill Sharia law coms to the uk anyway ;)

just my 2ps worth on the matter.

now im going this high brow chats to much for my little brain :)

Meh, I don't get the whole argument. It's not as if the food is "blessed" or anything, there is nothing particularly religious about the actual meat. The term halal only means that "it is permissible" to eat if you follow the laws of Islam. I don't see it being religious really.

At the end of the day, I don't see how it is anymore inhumane than electricuting or shooting animals with a bolt gun.

That said, it is entirely Gavins choice whether he eats it or not.

But, I will agree with reeder, having read back several pages, I cannot see you answer his question of: if when you ask if meat is halal and they say they don't know, will you still consume the meat?

[munkygunn182]

I see i've managed to pass out, wake up again, and this is still going! Although, having read all of it over, I can see WB's point. It doesn't bother me personally at all, but obviously it bothers WB and he should be given enough information in the same way halal consumers demand to allow him to make his own choices.

Balanced enough to avoid getting shot down?... I'll put my parachute on incase.

+1

Personally i don't care as long as the meat is good meat.

Like you stated earlier all are meat was prepared like this before, and the game I have eaten has been killed some how.

we have all been eating it for years anyhow, curry houses, take-aways.

[anna]

hey bibio good day??

[Bibio]

well i'm awake now so its going to get better.. you?

[Reeder]

Im having my believes mocked and i not happy about it, if my believes were religious you would be racist!

I am already anti-gav. Does that make me racist? You are your own race aren't you? Half man/neanderthal...

[Wideboy]

But, I will agree with reeder, having read back several pages, I cannot see you answer his question of: if when you ask if meat is halal and they say they don't know, will you still consume the meat?

look please

questionSo referring back an earlier post of mine, are you going to ask how all of your meat that you're about to eat has been slaughtered in future? There's no point saying you don't agree with it, but then continuing to eat it from other sources in the future.
first answer
I already do, if its note stated i ask and 9 times out of 10 the answer i get is "duno" just like british produce ect
second answer
but to satisfy your hunger for said knowledge the conclusion is yes and i already do


anyway to answer all your question i have actually been trolling all day in this thread as some of you probably cottoned onto. I've had no work on and yesterday was incredibly boring in here so i thought I'd liven it up with a debate. I'm actually surprised it went as far as it did as most know i will and have in fact eaten anything even if its not meant for human consumption......... but i did buy a sandwich that had halal meat in it this morning that wasn't a lie..... and yes i did eat it

im a pr!ck i know but my day flew by :mrgreen:

trolling aside, is it not a serious discussion tho? why do we not get the choice?

[Viney]

Whato? Don't like to org on my phone so this will be my role sort this evening. Love you all... Sort of x

[Holdup]

**** sake!!!

My Dad has scratched my bike for the second time in less than a month and i havent even ridden it

[minimorecambe]

Crap news James :(

Hows he managed that?

[Holdup]

1st scratch is tiny and he was helping me with drilling the fairing to fit crash bungs so couldnt really complain, still its visible and annoying, just been down the work shop tonight to find a tool bag had been crammed and i mean crammed, i struggled to pull the bag free under my right lower fairing, not only that but theres a drill in there with a plug on the end, which was hanging out the bag and a metal wire brush of some sort! upon finaly pulling the bag free 2 very nice scratches in basicly a plus shape about 3 - inches long each, havent managed to get a proper look but obviously shining the torch on them they are VERY obvious and being on the right not exactly facing the floor when its on its stand

:mad:

how is every one else

[DarrenSV650S]

Came home, washed baby girl, changed her oil

Did you change the filter too?

[minimorecambe]

Once again - yes I did :)

[DarrenSV650S]

Once again? How often do you change the filter?

[minimorecambe]

I mean once again I am being asked that question!
Bib asked me exactly the same thing before aswell

[DarrenSV650S]

lol great minds.....

Don't actually know what your on about when you say changing a babys oil ?

[minimorecambe]

I wouldnt know how to change a babies oil either!

As I tend to call the sv Baby girl - I know how to change her oil :D

[DarrenSV650S]

ohhhhhhhh. I thought I was being clever there lol

[minimorecambe]

ohhhhhhhh. I thought I was being clever there lol

Nope :p

Really sorry - I forgot to post your ferret today :(
I will try and do it tomorrow though ;)

[DarrenSV650S]

Oh yeh the mysterious ferret. Looking forward to that, I think

[minimorecambe]

Lol it isnt anything horrible.
You know I am a nice (ish) person :D

[DarrenSV650S]

Are you riding your bike through winter then?

[minimorecambe]

Yeh
Its my only trasport as I dont drive, yet.

[DarrenSV650S]

Oh I get to dump the van tomorrow! It'll be so nice to get back in my car with heating, decent power, non lumpy diesel engine, wipers that work, and a good cd player :D

[minimorecambe]

CD player to listen to....................????

[DarrenSV650S]

Vampire weekends first album. Just got it last week and loving it. And got MoS anthems 98-08 which is pretty good.

I've got loads of albums on a SD card in the car

[minimorecambe]

Good taste :)

[DarrenSV650S]

I should be getting to bed but I'm not even tired. I couldn't sleep till 2am last night. Was just playing games on my iphone, which is what I'm doing now lol

[Bibio]

3mm and my plans are spoilt.. but we shall wait and see.

[DarrenSV650S]

For the speedo sensor ?

[Bibio]

yup. but i have a backup plan. so alls not lost. bit more complicated but will work a treat.

[DarrenSV650S]

If it's just 3mm couldn't you try a slightly smaller speedo drive off another bike?

[Bibio]

whole point is to reuse the sv one. what puzzles me is gsxrk4-5 inside fork spacing is 165mm but gsxr1000k1-4 is 168. same spindle, spindle nut, wheel, wheel space and bearings. unless the lower fork brackets have a wider diameter i cant see how the size is different. unless the person who done the fork matrix over at tlzone has messed up.

[munkygunn182]

Right troops, im off to my bed! :)

So if you got gsxr1000 forks it would fit sweet


Right troops, im off to my bed! :)

Night mate

[Bibio]

night mm xxxx

no as i suspect someone has messed up. the gsxr1000 k3-4 forks are same centres on yokes and same radial mounts as k4-5 600-750. so someone is wrong and its not me as i have measured over and over again. i supose the lower yoke could be different but i verrrry much doubt it as the spindle and nut would not fit to centre the wheel.

[DarrenSV650S]

I'm off too. Night
