Don't think it was that sort of audit.

He was counting plastic trays.

A perfectly reasonable reaction from farm employees who dislike auditors, I'd have thought !
Wonder what they had to hide?
Could have been worse, next time it could be a little accident with a shotgun!

ooooooooooh!

Many years ago, waiting at traffic lights, a HUGE truck full of cows did a right turn, too fast. The poop that was on the floor went sideways and all over the car next to me. Poor souls had their windows down.

The smell was unbelievable.

So were the screams and swearing.

Pop a good film on for him to relax tonight, perhaps Oklahoma, you can sing along with your own lyrics to the "slurry" with the fringe on top.

I hope the farmer had the good manners to wash it off for him.

This morning I had a distressed phone call from OH, you remember him, the one who locked himself in the back of a van at the ferry port.

He picked up a bit of auditing work and had to visit agricultural premises.

While he was there his car was sprayed with slurry!

He has had to go out and do the other visits in my car. If that comes home covered in s**t he will find himself covered in blood.
