Thanks to everyone who has phoned, texted, e mailed, offered to help etc. When you are in the S*** you really know who your friends are. Last weekend there was a slurry spill on the farm next door and it ran off the top fields, through the stables, through the yard, over the bank, under my oil tank, down the steps and under the back door of my garage and out the front door of my garage and under my front door. Hall isn't too bad as have been bleaching the slate floor everyday but garage is locked [Environmental Health advice]until the loss adjuster comes [tomorrow]. Meanwhile can't get into garage where all my brand new beekeeping equipment is [Thanks to other bee keepers who have rallied round and been tending my bees for me as I have nothing left including my suit and veil, as it's all contaminated, can't get to my freezer which will have to go cos you can't sterilise a freezer but we don't know about the contents yewt [18 cu ft frreezer has alot of food in it!], garden furniture, all the stuff for the camper van... I could go on. You have all been fantastic with all your offers of help but it has to be a professional clear up team in protective white suits [a bit like the alien invasion] because of possible contamination [samples go to public health labs tomorrow]. Now I really am up to my ears in it!!!!!
