Sorry to hear it was a lousy game. Sorry about the hoof and mouth disaster too. It is so tragic. There was a very informative story in the March 4th, Sunday Telegraph Review Section about it: "Edward Luttwak runs a primitive cattle ranch in Bolivia, where his cows roam freely and are more at risk from jaguars and wolves than from foot and mouth. By contrast, modern farming methods subject cows to an unnatural diet of supplements and antibiotics which, he says, makes them permanently unhealthy. The result is a disease-ridden industry that makes costly epidemics inevitable" Very much makes me want to become a vegetarian. I'll try and find the complete article to post but you could probably so do quicker. No games on TV today so 'arry's gone out in the rain to watch the local lads play in the mud. What fun! rose
