Thread Name: BS: Foot& Mouth reaches N.Yorks
Subject: RE: BS: Foot& Mouth reaches N.Yorks
I don't see why people are so scared about travelling in England. I live in a little village in North Yorkshire and I have decided that this year I do not want to go abroad with my parents to France, I'm going to Devon camping for two weeks and I'm also goin to try to get to as many folk festivals as possible. I don't see why we should let this dreadful disease interfer as long as we stick to where we are allowed to go and stay off land that has warnings. Only a few days ago, I was outraged to see someone tearing down tape put across a footpath to the woods behind my house, in order to take their dog for a walk. What is the point of doing all this to prevent the disease from spreading further if people are going to ignore it and carry it around. They will be the ones who suffer when they get the huge fines though. But it is the minority who are making the situation worse for the rest of us.

Peace
