Bird flu - stock up on Hensip Max!

Wales is going to the dogs – or the birds? On top of the TB outbreaks in Swansea and Cardiff we now have Bird Flu in North Wales. The acting Public Health bod for North Wales is quoted (by the BBC no less) as saying "There's no need to panic". It would appear NPHS are recruiting Dad's Army to run our health service. Stock up on provisions and stay in doors, I say as "We're doomed!".

Perhaps it’ll carry Daddy off, the old Buzzard. It’s not the word I want to use today but it’s close. He was spotted in the kitchen today, stumbling out of the bathroom with his open dressing gown flapping behind him. His shorts were missing and on display were some spring bulbs that wouldn’t win prizes at the Royal Horticultural Show. Even if they sprouted and came into flower I doubt any of the blue rinsed old ladies trotting around the petunias would pay much interest. "They don't like it up 'em Mr Mainwaring, sir!"
