Paula Hynes: We need to use common sense when it comes to bluetongue
We need to be vigilant as regards bluetongue, and also hope that Northern Ireland can control it and we do not have any cases detected in Southern Ireland. File photo
As I am writing this, I wonder to myself how much the bluetongue situation will have evolved in Northern Ireland.Â
As it stands, the girls have been given the opportunity to compete in the showmanship classes at the RUAS Winter Fair thanks to friends of ours in Northern Ireland who have animals competing at the show. We will see over the next 48 hours if we will travel up as we also await what the show livestock committee decides at their meeting tomorrow.
