If like me you have watched far too much reporting on the so called 'bird flu crisis' (All done with with a real news reader 'at the scene'!) then perhaps we should look at things in perspective.
This 'crisis' consists of one swan in Scotland being diagnosed with the 'deadly' strain of 'bird flu'
Reality check: One swan has died in Scotland.
In 2005, more than half a million people in the UK died of cancer and another half a million lost their lives to heart disease in England and Wales alone.
So why no panic, why no amazing 'public protection campaigns', about that?
Watch out for how the news is fed to you; it is serving somebody's agenda, maybe not yours.
So if you must eat Swan, please make sure it is thoroughly cooked!

Online adulterers hunted
A website aimed at trapping men who use the internet to commit online adultery has been launched.
Izzy Schumacher, 35, from Ormskirk, Lancashire, came up with the idea for nethim.com after she said she caught her ex-boyfriend cheating on her on an internet dating site.
The site works by trawling chatrooms and dating sites for straying men and is believed to be the first of its kind.
There is no where to hide!
More stuff later
