Map of Fife showing location of Bird Flu SwanSome how this Swan has made it to Scotland from god knows where and landed in or around the Fife area. They haven't found any other cases in the surrounding areas which is good news.
I wonder how many dead birds with H5 are currently lying unnoticed in the swans flight path. (Or dead foxes as a result of a freebie meal).

The BBC have a basic pop up guide that gives some information about Bird flu

Dave the Chameleon

Dave The Chameleon
Labour has unveiled its secret weapon in the battle against David Cameron's resurgent Conservative Party, a little blue lizard that changes colour to match his political environment

From the Times

Not that I usually pay attention to Politics at this time of year, but this did give me a chuckle. Especially when Cameron was right in the middle of his television broadcast, asked if there was any questions from the floor for the first one to be 'So what do you think of Dave the Chameleon?'.
I am sure he blushed a little before carrying on.
Only bad thing is I am going to have that damn culture club soundbite in my head for the next week.
