Has Jazzer been given the push or not? Will Jazzer even be
needed with the (presumably) smaller number of oinks required in the new
regime. Is Brian being the biggest swine by insisting on the other pigs
going walkabout to his land instead of staying where they are? I suppose
Brian gains extra control and presumably, he will reap the benefits of
the use of his land in terms of his returns having to include 'use of
land' as well as his 50% of all proceeds.

Could not 'Uncle Brian' have been just a little more generous
and said: 'Well Tom, I would like the pigs to be included in my own
farmland management but of course, to gain organic status will take us
three years; if you wish to maintain organic status, we will have to use
your land in the interim - but at your own expense as I can't afford to
leave the land fallow for three years otherwise?

Questions questions, and still no sign of the Somerset Organics
website returning!
