Default Keep your visor down

Deputy chief vet Fred Landeg has said of the nasty outbreak of Blue Tongue, that "test results had shown the disease...is transmitted by biting midges."

How a sheep or a cow bites a midge, I'm not sure. But keep your visors down, and if you do get a midge in the mouth, for Pete's sake spit it out....

Blue tongue doesn't affect humans only cows (some females may want to keep the visors shut. only joking before I get a kicking from the ladies) and maybe some other livestock.

In fact I think I heard they might sell the meat from affected cattle anyway.

More of a concern for me are those humans who speak with Forked Tongue.

Hope the disease doesnt get north of the border.

Midges up the hooter - already plenty of BlueNoses in Glasgow :P
