This morning I read the news about the foot and mouth outbreak in Surrey. While it is of major concern, especially following the events of six years ago, why do the media have to show all those terrible photos of burning animals from 2001?
At the moment the outbreak is contained and the authorities are doing all they can to keep it that way. Repeating the images from six years ago will stir up worldwide panic, and the UK agricultural industry will be unfairly blacklisted. After the wet summer and poor treatment from major supermarkets, don’t the farmers have enough to cope with!

About Me
So you stumbled across my blog. No doubt after searching for something bizarre on Google. Before you hit that 'Back Button', why not stay and have a read for a few minutes?
If you are after a website which gives advice on how to hack an iPhone X, download the latest Steven Seagal movie, or view nudy ladies, you've come to the wrong place and may now press 'Back'.
However, if you would like a lifestyle blog, written by a 30-something chap, living in Bath (England), feast your eyes on this.
You won't discover how to copy PlayStation 4 games. What you will find is a blog, covering life in the West Country, the highs and lows of supporting two unsuccessful football teams, while sharing a house with a wife and rabbit.
All written by a man, somewhere on the sanity-scale between normal and eccentric.
