the trotters I produce are limited, very high quality (certifiable) organic, Tamworth and Landrace. These are all I have space for at present (for God's sake, don't tell "the Man" I'm keeping swine in town). Unless or until someone offers me up some elusive, verifiable "Old Spots" that is.
BTW, I have two Corylus (hazel) varieties, two currant varieties and two gooseberry varieties, all mature and vigorous. Pigs love hazelnuts.
Presently here's my only nemesis, the sneering, defiant pig...and his (so far still attached) trotters. Curse him.
In the 1981 film Chariots of Fire, Harold Abrahams (Ben Cross) and Sybil Gordon (Alice Krige) are out to dinner when Sybil orders "her favorite" and Harold says, "for two". Harold had just told Sybil about his Jewish heritage and the waiter brings them a tray of Pigs' Trotters. In spite of Harold's surprise, this draws a laugh from both Harold and Sybil.
