We have another outbreak of the H5N1 bird flu virus on our shores. This will go one of three ways as I see it:
Outbreak will be contained by the culling - could be tricky here as the birds were all free range living outside (unlike the last one).
Outbreak will spread - shortage of turkeys for Xmas.
Outbreak will break the mold and find a human subject where it can evolve into a human to human form of bird flu in which case we are all screwed - not very likely according to the scientists.
On a much lighter note I read about a cat that now expects to be collected by a car from the same place about from 1.5 miles from it’s home every morning

Bird flu=scary. Saw that in the news the other day.
Sgt. Podge=awwww! How cute! I think he has a girlfriend in the area or some really good food sources. Did they think to keep him indoors and if they have a cat door, seal it? Just a thought.
I hope they're able to contain the bird flu. I'm also sorry for the farmers whose livelihood will be damaged by this outbreak.
That cat story is so wacky. Cats are funny.
rt, probably extra food methinks.
Phlegmmy, Yes - they have extended the cull to 4 other sites owned by the firm as they share workers.
