I\u2019ve put my Sunday best on ready to go and have combed my hair and made sure I\u2019ve washed behind my ears. I\u2019ve been a bit hyperactive though and I think they are seeing that as a reason against going. I was rather looking forward to singing a few hymns and howling in the appropriate places.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s been odd being back in suburbia. I\u2019ve grown quite accustomed to village life. I\u2019ve learnt quite a lot about rural ways from living in a village. I no longer thing that cereal is something that comes out of a packet in the supermarket. I think it\u2019s something that takes hours of work to grow in the field. I\u2019ve also learnt that when the weather is as bad as it\u2019s been this summer it doesn\u2019t do the crops any good, quite apart from them not being able to get the combine harvesters in to the waterlogged fields to cut the wheat. Instead of being able to cut beautiful golden ears of wheat, they are left with dull brown ears that end up as animal feed. I would be concerned that animals don\u2019t get the best bits, except for learning that it also gets used to brew beer and if it\u2019s good enough for beer then it\u2019s good enough for animals. When I hear the farmers out working until all hours, I can\u2019t help but feel grateful and begin to understand why some food has gone up in price. I think the Pet Dogs Democratic Party will need to develop some key policies to do with farming. I\u2019m just not sure what they should be.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>I\u2019m sitting waiting patiently to see if they are going to risk taking me to the pet\u2019s service at church.
