yup, the kids told me when they got home from school this evening, lets hope this time round, they do the right thing, the thing they should have done before, and not play it down for months.

 

my uncle as well as being a pastor, is also a member of, one of the agricultural bodies for there call centre, this involves, a central call centre, and the call s are directed to his home for support, and he told me that some of the affects of the farmers and there familys that he spoke to would put to shame the lame excuses and lack of help these people are getting from the government.

 

dont get me wrong i voted labour, but remember, the faces you see in the press are most definetly not the ones who run this country, my political thought are not needed here, mail me if you need that.

 

if it messes up our fishing....well thats not to important either, we just dont go out, and do our best to stop the spread again.

 

this summer is aparently suposed to be a blinder, so with a bit of luck, it could be the end of it, .............for a while.

what they tried to do was keep it out of eyesight, after all any industry in the uk is not important to our political partys, i dont give a monkeys what they try to impress on us, gone are the days when the party (any party) really cares, the old saying sell your granny fore a shilling stil stands, again mail me if you want some real thoughts.

 

very something smelly

I'm no expert, but I think the reason they decided against vaccination was that they'd never be able to export again if they did.

My fingers are crossed for you all, forget the fishing for a moment. I realy hope this is a false alarm. I don't think the UK farming industry could take another dose of this.

This is another of those times when we need a SAD gremlin, it is not always possible for some of us to put our true from the heart feelings in a topic.
