My Animal Health officer went to bloodtest a bunch of cattle from Limousine, France and also from the Black Forest, Germany last week and she's hoping mad that we cant move around our own country. How is it that Limousine has a warmer climate than we do and they have a vector free season in operation but we, freezing the ****s off a brass monkey for the last 2 weeks still havent got one in place? Anyhow, the DEFRA website hasnt as yet been updated to include the "latest outbreak" so I am actually wondering if it has shown up for antibodies/antigens and not for a confirmed virus case. The cow wasnt ill by all accounts and has to pass pretty rigorous health vettting to get in to GB (I know, dont say it!!) But it kind of makes you wonder Back to top bronskibeat Joined: 09 Sep 2007 Posts: 1400 Location: Clawddnewydd Posted: Sat Dec 22, 2007 12:33 am    Post subject: JUMPING UP AND DOWN IN EXCITEMENT!!!!!!!
