I doubt Nicky could get it right, her reading skills are pretty defunct along with her reasoning, and her anyalitical skills could do with a brushup, she seems to run on misplaced emotion and dubious "FACTS".

Dear Alanpoi, it would appear that anyone who disagrees with you labours under "misplaced emotions". I have a Masters' Degree and four units to complete for a Doctorate, with seven High Distinctions and several published research papers. I'll stack my literary skills against yours any day. Bring it on!

That’s an interesting thing to say pale – that I only post here as a hobby. Could there be any other reason?

Hey, I was thinking of all you guys this morning while weighing and loading pigs to go to the abattoirs. I talk to my pigs a fair bit so I told them the story of how you lot think this is all very stressful for them. One little guy, that had just planted about the 20th outline of a muddy snout on my leg, looked up at me I said ‘ well what do you think’ I am quite fluent now in pig and he said “you stupid woman, I am a pig, what are you asking me for” Anyway, as they were loaded onto their brand new, purpose built trailer for the trip, I watched them. They did exactly the same as every other load of free range pigs (and I stress the free range here) do. They were so busy snouting around this new environment they forgot to wave goodbye.

On a more serious note – free range pigs are so used to huge variety in their environment that they seem to enjoy new things instead of being afraid of them. Unlike their factory reared cousins, that start their journey in absolute terror – and that’s just from seeing the sun for the first time.

Sorry Reading back I can see it sounded different to what I meant.
Meant that as you are the only Free Range Pork Farmer to even try to educate the public - it was a pity you didnt want to go any further.
Meant You seem to be the ONLY one with that "energy" which is greatly appreciated.

But I didnt think you wanted to do Ag schools or speaches.




Thought you just want to do your own thing- posting on OLO and working hard on your farm.

Thats all I meant by it.

I apoligise if I offended you.

Wasnt my intention honestly.

No offence taken, just curious :)

Dear me - I must have offended Alanpoi. Not a word in response. In addition to stacking my literary skills against his/hers any day, I'll do the same with my research skills.
BTW - DO we know who everyone is? I've got to confess I haven't got a clue who anyone here really is.
Nicky
