Want to go camp out at a show for the weekend. Trouble is, I got back from the Ace Cafe on Sunday to discover my dog running around the garden with the wife and kids, newly aquired pet rabbit. Seems he prized the hutch open and helped himself to the new throw toy/snack. So I gotta earn some points real quick! Let me know what are your tried and trusted methods of getting into those all important good books.

Cook the rabbit slowly with plenty of chunky vegetables in a nice stew serve with a decent red wine voila dinner for the missus with wine and you can always claim that you have saved a few bob....  In other words matey yer stuffed get on yer knees and grovel, beg, plead, throw yerself at her mercy its the only chance you have ...or cry like a baby women hate to see men greet, you could always say you are emotionally scarred from the rabbit incident and need time away to recover....

In the spirit of reconciliation and understanding forgiveness (anger and retribution and recrimination) that followed the whole pet murder investigation, I did raise the stew idea (waist not want not). The best that can be said is that not everyone who attended the funeral found it either in good taste or in the slightest bit amusing.

At great personal risk, I have completed an intelligence-gathering mission.
I have an answer from the depths of the Female Answers Vault.
My wife says buy a new rabbit and a new latch/lock the dog cannot break.
As payment for this information my wife and I must watch a Romantic Comedy.(shudder)

Take no responsibility for the fiasco. Blame whoever brought home the rabbit (unless it was you) for the entire thing. After all, they presented the poor dog with an irresistible target for its prey drive. THEY SHOULD HAVE KNOWN BETTER! WHAT WERE THEY THINKING? Poor dog, he was just following his natural instincts. That worked for me when my Siberian Husky tried to eviscerate the neighbors cat. Luckily it took place in my yard where the cat had no legitimate business, he was closed up with only 10-12 stitches. Considering the Husky earlier killed a large male adult raccoon while suffering no injuries, the cat got off easy.
We all like to think of ourselves as rugged individualists. But when push comes to shove most of us are sheep who do what we are told. Worst of all, a lot of us become unpaid agents of whoever is controlling the agenda by enforcing the current dogma on the few rugged individualists who actually exist.

What an absolutely rotten answer to your situation. I would roast the little rodent in a sea of quartered potatoes and carrots drowning in a lovely browned rue. It can be served with either red or white wine of a fruity pallet - or - copious quantities of a respectable amber brew.

 Well you could buy somthing shiny for your bike and let her put it on.
The percentage you're paying is too high-priced
While you're living beyond all your means
And the man in the suit has just bought a new car
From the profit he's made on your dreams

Hmmmm you fail to grasp the total picture here ..The weather in the UK lends itself perfectly to stewing its cold wet an miserable so a filling hot bowl of rabbit stew is the way to go roasting does not allow the full flavour of the juices to permeat the vegetables... sometimes I despair at the cooking abilities on here...

Stewing, roasting, broiling....? Give the rabbit to the dog. He's not mad at you and besides, you'll probably be sharing living quarters for awhile...

More fun!

New rabbit purchased, sturdy lock fitted. Looks like I get to go to the rally, but have to take the dog with me. I also bought some shiny bits for the bike, just in case she wanted to fit them for me. The dog likes the new rabbit and spends all day with his nose pressed up against the hutch! Guess this one looks tasty too.

Why not take the rabbit with you to the rally? It would be easier to stowaway on your bike.
Having seen the size of your tent I couldn't imagine you fitting a mastiff in there and achieving a good nights sleep.
Before the war on terror, if I saw an unattended package I used to think "I'll be having that!"

I expect nothing less, thats what fiends are for! The dog will be sharing a Tent with Ray at the next rally. Don't worry Ray, he won't eat you, he might eat your T bags and yer rolling tobaco though.
