PREGNANT pause....
A 42-year old British mother to
be, Alison Brierly, has admitted to
media that her pregnancy has
caused some unusual cravings,
namely the tasty roadside
morsels created by the collision of
animal and tire.
That’s right, Brierly is craving
roadkill.
An artist and taxidermist by
trade, Brierly said she usually uses
the hides of roadkill to create
jewellery, however her “healthy
diet” got rather strange when
instead of crafting earrings, her
body instructed her to cook up
the roadkill for a snack.
“It’s more gamey than other
meat and I love the taste,” she
said.
“I also don’t have to feel guilty
about eating it because I know
it’s had a completely free range
and natural life,” she added.
Brierly said that her most
common roadkill snacks scraped
off the side of the road include
hare, pigeon, rabbit and owl, but
that she is really wanting to try
some fox and badger but
“they’re never in good enough
condition to eat”.
WATCH out for sunburn.
If the latest reports are anything
to go by, nudism is on the rise,
and with it, sunburn.
San Francisco’s Bare to Breakers
race around the city has been in
the headlines recently, simply for
its sheer popularity.
One might be forgiven for
thinking that racing naked is a
recipe for disaster, however if the
crowds who participate and
watch the race are anything to go
by, it seems a cheeky 12km
nuddie run is just the incentive
for many to get fit and get
moving.
Many however are left a little
red and raw after running under
the sun, leading organisers to
issue a warning for future entrants,
to apply sunscreen liberally.
