I give up!

Being in the green zone, there is the slim hope that perhaps we won't get EI. Well that idea blew away with the gusty westerly winds today. We had a big Field Day here and when I went to see what was on offer, I found a place that had horse yards and chatted to the owner. He informed me he was from Maitland and had 40 horses with EI... I asked him if he followed Bio security procedures before coming here and he said "what does it matter, you are going to get it anyway".

When I think that there are over 100 exhibitors from rural areas here, what chance do we have with that attitude... they have all turned up with trucks/sheds/equipment and not an ounce of disinfectant!

Give us 5 days here in the green zone and we will be joining the rest of you guys already going through it. Better get the horse shod now! Watch out Vic its heading your way...
