Thats no good Jackie they have all but put it out now.So you will not come home to roast pig or lamb Which is a good thing anyway.We can all manage quite well without these explosions and fires.We all should wait and see what the HSE find before passing judgement. :farmer:

ooh yeah HM you have a good point about my pigs  ;D But still I expect to feel a bit sad the first time. :'(
Im going back to Nk with the new pigs and lambs on Tuesday so I will measure the pigs to see if they are big enough cos Im not sure they are yet. ;D :D

Yeh George, Les says the fire engines have gone now and only the company ones are there although he can still see a little smoke/steam. Ill give you 3 guesses who they will blame for the accident?

I have spent most of the day trying to buy 20 or so Aylesbury ducklings and it seems that they are as rare as hens teeth!!!!!

I have now given up on Aylesburys and left enquiries via e mail for peking ducklings all over the uk. lol

Both are 'eating' ducks as opposed to laying birds. I think I could sell ducks to eat but Im not sure about being able to sell duck eggs.

Your residence is not the best site for Farm Gate Shopping until word gets round.But lots of people like duck eggs.Steve at the farm shop I often mention sells them.David told me Church Lane was closed yesterday. I am pleased Les has kept you informed on the activity at LOR I think the noise would be deadened because the Cat towers are in the way from your house.Which must be good ;D :farmer:

Im going to advertise at those refinerys cos Les knows a few people who work there so we will have an ad on the notice board plus a large ad at both ends of the road through NK.
 Im also going to advertise at the animal feed place. We get a church notice leaflet once per month that carrys ads too so it will be in there and take a small add in GG ie Christmas orders now taken for........
.
Then hopefully I can buy the amount of turkey poults I get orders for plus a few extra.

Advertise duck eggs as being superb for baking (which they are) it may give you a premium on them.

The 24 year old contractor who died in the LOR fire on Tuesday Jackie, has been named as Robert Greenacre working for Babcocks Contractors and had been working on site for the last 5 years we learn from the Telegraph. Disastrous for his parents as he was their only child

Hello Ian isn't it just.If you are interested. In the Google box type ThisisGrimsby.net and on the page click Local news.There are pics of the fire and reports of the event and after.There is a mistake though a pal was there and it was on fire before the explosion it didn't explode and catch fire as the Telegraph printed.This of course is of little importance to Robert :( :farmer:
