on the upside they do seem to be maknig good efforts, and no sound of a cull yet

Just said on news that although exact strain hasn't been confirmed, it was 'highly pathogenic'.
But how can they know that without knowing exactly what strain it is?

if it is Cellardyke, its only about 20 miles as the crow/ swan flies. I'm hearing rumours of it being Craigtoun Park, and another of it being near Dunfermline Question

we'll find out in the morning.
We are going away for 5 days on Friday, lousy timing or what?
