    Exclamation What? There's a fox in my donkey?

    Wal-Mart recalls donkey product in China after fox meat scandal!


    (Reuters) - Wal-Mart Stores Inc, the world's largest retailer, has recalled donkey meat sold at some outlets in China after tests showed the product contained the DNA of other animals, the U.S. company said.

    Wal-Mart will reimburse customers who bought the tainted "Five Spice" donkey meat and is helping local food and industry agencies in eastern Shandong province investigate its Chinese supplier, it said late on Wednesday in official posts on China's Twitter-like Weibo. The Shandong Food and Drug Administration earlier said the product contained fox meat.

    Just claim to be using English English. Nothing but pure thoughts!

    In the meantime, what do you call the mount of an Irishman who wants to bring back chivalry? Donkey O'Tay!

    And for a really English audience ... what did the peace keeping fox of Liverpool say? Now den, now den!

    If we're in to English Only jokes:-

    A geordie goes to his tailor "What clothes have you got from the 70s?"
    "How about a kipper tie?"
    "Thanks, milk and two sugars"

    Hey, I'm from Hampshire so I view the two as pretty much interchangable

    A Geordie is hired as a scout by the seventh cavalry. One day he reports that he can hear drums in the distance. "Are they war drums?" asks his commander. "No, mon, they're theirs"
