nup, there's a little bit at the top about disposing of animal flesh. i didn't want to go into too much detail with any one description... i just want to keep them short and sweet :)

i supposed people would make the connection themselves really :)

Ah, missed that. Knacker's Yard also got twisted to meaning castration at vets, too, in some literature (usually diaries of local farmers) in Essex's past.
