When the news broke about the 2007 outbreak I was helping a friend with some cattle and the vet was there somone phoned him to tell him, anyway I came home and told Mum and she said "oh that will be Pirbright let it out again, they did that when I was at farm school next door"I remember walking into the farmhouse front room when the news was first announcing it. Grandad just sat there in silence, never moved for the whole program. Hardly spoke rest of the evening. Just sat staring into space
Neighbours in-laws have a chip shop and a box of fish has gone from £170 to £288Trouble with fish n chips is….when tatties went up £10/T chips went up a £1 a bag

I always thought it was wrong blaming the pig farmer .When the news broke about the 2007 outbreak I was helping a friend with some cattle and the vet was there somone phoned him to tell him, anyway I came home and told Mum and she said "oh that will be Pirbright let it out again, they did that when I was at farm school next door"
That would have been eearly 60's, it most likely came from there in the 2001 outbreak but lumping the blame on a pig farmer was better for them.
I was in Blackpool in November 2000 bumped into a timber trader friend in a bar who had an order for sleepers from the government, he was there meeting an Irish man who would import them. They didn’t know what the order was for. They knew it was coming before it happenedI always thought it was wrong blaming the pig farmer .
Iived next to the pig farm for two years when i was a kid , feel sorry for him it wasnt his fault and for a government to pin blame of something like that on one man … just proves what utter cu n t s politician’s areI was in Blackpool in November 2000 bumped into a timber trader friend in a bar who had an order for sleepers from the government, he was there meeting an Irish man who would import them.

Funnily enough, I've heard similar.Snowie company was set up by Nick Brown for his cousin before it started. It was set up in 2000 all new gear with no contracts. All disappeared afterwards all pre decided
Blair had agreed in a meeting in Brussels to get rid of millions of sheep and cattle the year before coincidentally, no one knew at the time how he was going to do itFunnily enough, I've heard similar.
I never thought that enough was made of the fact that it came from a government lab. I was working at Kilmarnock. They were shooting perfectly good store lambs to be chucked in the skip on the 'welfare cull'. Some even came down from ShetlandWhen the news broke about the 2007 outbreak I was helping a friend with some cattle and the vet was there somone phoned him to tell him, anyway I came home and told Mum and she said "oh that will be Pirbright let it out again, they did that when I was at farm school next door"
