... about the time when swine flu was announced to have broken out in Mexico and I had a Mexican pony en route. The chances of catching the virus from a packet and a pony weren't exactly probable but I was taking no chances. When the package arrived it was handled with gloves and thrown straight in the bin outside. Mexican Cotton Candy was dunked straight into a sink of anti-bacterial washing up liquid and given a vigorous scrub. I seem to recall holding my breath while doing all of this too. That was my random memory, just thought I'd share.
