The grain drier is sold!
From the amount of interest shown, Oz could have a nice little earner:
renting out storage and drying space:-)
I am currently loading wheat (15.8%) to go back to the farm of origin to
create space for the last 50 tons yet to be cut.
Another neighbour reckons he has 700 tons still ...

Lord Winston's fury as red tape drives British GM pig transplant experiments to the U.S.
Tue, 09 Sep 2008 12:29:48 +0100
Pat's Note: I'm wondering just how this statement can be true.
"He said the pigs used in the experiments were proven to have no
viruses - and that the research did not put human health in danger."
Circoviruses are very difficult to diagnose, which is one of the
reasons why export of live pigs should be ban ...

On the run from bent vets.
Mon, 08 Sep 2008 18:57:14 +0100
Pat's Note: I see the government continues to try to run away from its
own vets.
It's a bit late to try to put distance between themselves and the over
prescription of antibiotics to PMWS striken herds of pigs.
It takes a special kind of cowardice to run away from a gang of bent
vets and to allow them to cont ...

PMWS - Keep going Winston!
Mon, 08 Sep 2008 13:14:45 +0100
Pat's Note: Drake's Drum is beating.
If this Winston keeps this up, Britain's animal health cover-ups are
going to be exposed to the world and the collapse of the world's
first, only and last vetocracy will become inevitable.
They dared not let him loose on Britain's sick pigs.
Anyone who has studied Win ...

Pig health moves centre stage
Sun, 07 Sep 2008 18:17:40 +0100
Pat's Note: One thing about this: pig health moves centre stage and
the deplorable state of Britain's pigs over the last nine years and
the consequent dangers to human health can't be hidden up any longer.
I would imagine that the long delayed balloon will now go up.
The odd thing is that Defra doing the righ ...

Antibiotic misuse and former shipping clerks
Sun, 07 Sep 2008 13:34:50 +0100
Pat's Note: I was fascinated to see hat not only did Fleming foresee
the possibility of misuse of penicillin, but he too was a retired
shipping clerk with a modest unassuming disposition who mangled his
English.

A case of mistaken identity

Defra stops Lord Winston's experiments.
Sun, 07 Sep 2008 12:25:48 +0100
Pat;s Note: It may have made the front page of the Sunday Times, but
it isn't going to happen.
Two members of the family rely on either pig transplants or pig
enzymes to stay alive - and that is not uncommon these days.
Winston will have a tough job finding any pigs free of PMWS or other
circoviruses, even in ...
