    Don't bother ringing the Swine Flu Hotline, apparently all you get is crackling on the line.

    That could be interference from a local ham radio operator.

      It's a pig of a wait. When the operator comes on, they only tell you porkies.

        Don't encourage him. Sty away from any more puns, that's my advice.

              I wouldn't ring it anyway. If I was put on hold I'd only get boar'd waiting.

              Self.Fart.Direction = xlGeneral Mother.Species = "Hamster" Father.Odour = "Elderberries" If (Depart==False) { Taunt++; }

                  If you can't get through, someone else is hogging the line.

                      Was yours in English? I reckon mine was a kind of Danish. Our government certainly seems to be a bit rasher than most in sending out the information so quickly, though.

                            They haven't sent me one. :(( Perhaps they think I'm already cured, or perhaps they thought it would be too boaring for a porker like me. Although they might want me to trotter long to my doctors, and get one there.
