Lets hope Richard Lochead had some success
"Richard Lochhead, the rural affairs minister, who was in Brussels to appeal for Scotland to be treated separately from the rest of Britain during the foot-and-mouth outbreak, announced interim plans for a "welfare cull" of hundreds of thousands of sheep that can no longer be exported and for which there is insufficient domestic demand."
I like the comments made about the amount of media coverage to Chelsea football team in the news part of the media against whats happening to the small farmers and crofters... Like the fishing industry it looks like the small farming /crofting way of life maybe coming to the end of the road in Caithness
unless things drastically improve
