Can we change the title on this topic from 'Removing Bristles' to 'it makes me bristle' should probably be in the coffee lounge but hey.
I voted for us to go into the EU. At the time Europe was like a club and we weren't in it, Ted Heath sold us all on the idea that we had to join or be left out in the cold, on our own. So we joined, however since then the club has completely changed direction.
Lamb from New Zealand, well our guys go to NZ and say do you want to buy any ships 'cause we can build them. They say yeh ok do you want to buy any lamb. "Not really" our guys say "we've got lots of lamb of our own" Well they say "in that case we're not buying your ships" Our guys think about it for a nano second and say "but we can destroy our own farming industry and buy your lamb instead" They shake hands and the deal is done.

In the 1920s GOS were hated by the slaughtermen because of the difficulty in removing the bristles. They tended to be slaughtered at an older age then and most were outdoor pigs and the scalding and scraping took forever.
