if youre taking a pot at me carlsen -i dont give a fat rats arse.my credentials are well known on this forum and i tell it how i sees it .
as started Is it not curious no one else was poisoned by eating this particular pig IIRC 3hunters actually secured the bloody thing.
secondly Isnt it curious that this by all accounts seems a one off .given the extreme popularity of pig hunting as a national pastime,I'd have expected to hear more reports of apparent botulism in pig hunters or dogs over the years .dunno about you but myaself im an avid reader and conversationalist and all the info ive gained on pig hunting has never mentioned botulism.ive read of cases where porcine TBwas suspected so carcasses were discarde(often characteriased by nodules of tumours attached to vital organs.
BTW beofre I go -to all you cynics and doubters re doctors -if you dont like medicos ,try it out for yourselves -walk a mile in our shoes.
believe me not a day goes past when i dont smile at at least one knowall pain in the arse,or stand there mute as a some knowall demanding petulant wee arsehole gives me an illfounded or unwarranted spray.some of you would have no bloody idea the filthy abuse thats hurled at us or the actual physical violence we suffer .
no we dont reply with taser or pepperspray ,nor sidearm ,though its fucking tempting!
wht do you think this country has a shortage of Drs and nurses.
Nuff fucking said
