Post by: Unicorn on September 25, 2009, 05:54:00 pm: I am just missing Rustyme

Its not the same

No Mosanto or Swine flu notices

No men in black

So have to do SOMething to MAKE it interesting :o :o :o

Just got a letter from Dept of Agriculture Fisheries and Food - theres swine flu in a herd of pigs in Northern Ireland.

So now no public can view my pigs, touch them or anything, and I have to have signs all over and log all visitors to the farm in a book
and I have a Pedigree Pig Keeping Course on Sunday with 10 attendees - ::) :o :o

Will have to use soft toys to explain where to inject, how to clean, farrow, measure for size when ready to go to meat etc - poor people will have to look at my pigs from a distance.

cough cough sneeze - armagheddon Flu

Red Tape - Red Tape - Red Tape - Red Tape - :pig: :pig: :pig: ::) ::) ::) ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Post by: doganjo on September 25, 2009, 11:48:30 pm: I phoned them today Chris - they will look at it on Monday and let me know whether to buy a new one or repair this one. Aha - just had a thought, maybe that's what my mower has - all that smoke could have been it coughing!(http://smileys.on-my-web.com/repository/Fantasy/fantasy-30.gif)

Post by: doganjo on September 27, 2009, 12:55:23 am: You are always so cynical ;). They haven't given me a price yet and I won't be buying a new one from them anyway. I'll probably go to B & Q
