Pat,

I do travel quite a bit to Southern Africa and have Zimbabwean friends in London.

Biltong is an Afrikaans word meaning meat cut into strips, sometimes salted, and then dried. It could be beef, antelope, crocodile, anything. Beef would be from farm animals and bush meat simply means anything that is caught and killed in the bush.

The Zulu word is umqwayiba. Their palate is somewhat more diverse than ours! Certain wild animals are believed to have medicinal properties and others might increase a man's potency or a woman's fertility.

Many of the so-called "miracle drugs" are tribal remedies that have been stolen and patented by arrogant Europeans and Americans. For example the Zulu have no need for "Viagra", they use a herb called "Vusa" . In literal translation "Vusa" means "Raise From The Dead"!!!!!!!!!

To go back to FMD it is my belief the virus got to Cheale Meats before it got to Bobby Waugh's premises. The rest you can probably work out for yourself!

All the best,
Bill.
