If you drive anywhere in Lincolnshire you will see fields everywhere with 'mini anderson shelters'.
AKA 'Pigloos'.
Most of our supermarket bacon seems to come from abroad, mainly The Netherlands, which is just a foreign version of Lincolnshire and Norfolk anyhow.....
Not really. Most Danish bacon farmers I know live in Yorkshire.

Then gets shipped over to return back. The madness of the public perception of danish bacon.

I freakin love bacon! And gammon, ham, pork, liver, pork scratchings, in fact, all pig based food stuffs.

I must eat at least 10 large pigs a year.
You didn't see the food program on TV last week which outlined why you shouldn't eat so much then?
Must work out at 1.5-2 kilos a day yikes

Mate of mine lived on a pig farm. Didn't work on it but the smell was soaked into his clothes, his car and his skin.

Loads of them opposite Stone Henge, just past the Henge on the left if you are heading west
I was driving last there with my mate who exclaimed "fking hell"!

Me: what's up
Him: nothing and looking rather silly
Me: did you think those pigs were massive sheep?
Him: yes

Imagine my surprise while passing Nutborne in Sussex yesterday to find a field full of walking talking bacons!
