Lucy is a little better than last week – and that is just the jokes which as usual take her “Week in Ambridge” to places the writers would never even consider – mentioning both Brexit and Plovdiv, the second largest city of Bulgaria! I hope that I do not need to explain the dual meaning of “poppers”.
I was confused over discussions of “Basil” and “sex” as I misheard it as “Boris” and thought Prime Ministers were too busy to indulge in such matters but apparently the “Basil” is not the one of the busses but is in fact a boar (the other one might be a bore too come to think of it). I don’t understand why Hannah has not been sacked both for her insubordination and for using a ladder without a method statement approved by a team of H&S experts.
The Academic Archers pop in to do the Song Swan of Barwick Green. To answer Roifield’s question: Dr Nicola Headlam is the Urban Transformations & Foresight Future of Cities Knowledge Exchange Research Fellow, funded by the ESRC (I think I am legally required to quote the last bit). She is part of COMPAS, School of Anthropology, University of Oxford. Roifield is apparently the “grout” that holds us all together!
Master Miles did not get to be heard this week as he recorded two minutes of the famous John Cage track. Mia appeared in his place.
Berrow Farm – I am not sure we have ever been told how many sows there are but online I have found that 1200 sows are reckoned to need five full time employees to cope with the workload but depending on layout and automation the same number might well be able to handle more.
