Following the recent (and very brief) outbreak of 'Foot and Mouth' disease in Glenboggin, the local doctor has now confirmed that it was in fact simply a boil on Elma Hoots-McLafferty's bottom and that it was nothing to get over-concerned about. The local panic that came about shortly after that scaremongering rag, 'The Glenboggin Bugle' started spreading the 'Foot and Mouth' rumour, and the fact that Elma claimed it was a Russian plot, wasn't helped any when an unknown resident used the local telegraphic machine to contact the scientists at the Porton Down military research facility calling for immediate help. They in turn instantly dispatched several of their top scientist to Glenboggin causing two serious problems. Firstly, no-one can locate the scientists who, after several days of searching the Scottish Highlands, have now been declared missing and presumed possibly dead, and secondly, apparently the aforementioned scientists were required for some small emergency in nearby Salisbury, Wiltshire for which they can no longer attend. In the meantime, Elma's boil exploded late last night surprising her pet cat 'Clarence' (the cat is cross-eyed) as it was lying across her nether regions at the time! (please don't ask why!)
