Fire crews rushed to a farm after an incinerator – in the process of burning a pig – caught alight. Other pigs had to be led to safety during the incident on Tuesday because of the sty-fling heat before the fire pig-aid managed to bring the fire under control and boar-d up the building. Hambulance staff were on hand to apply oinkment to the victims and hand out sow-esters. A spokespig was unable to comment because he had been dis-gruntled by the smoke.

Council Officials have confirmed that Lambden's Farm's new Hog Roast has been given a five star hygiene rating and Dee Road station watch manager Chris P. Bacon said they stayed at the scene until the crackling was done but denied that firemen had made pigs of themselves.
