"after it had been cleaned up" do you mean to say that your parents
washed and disinfected the grass.

You don't get a "clean" lawn when you own dogs.

So don't have dogs. And while you're still alive wrap yourself in sterile
bubble wrap suits so that you don't catch anything.

What planet do you come from?

I'll hazard a guess that you haven't learned to go to the toilet by yourself
yet

If you're being logical, and not just being a troll, you'd realise that birds,
foxes, and a whole host of beings wander all over the place and do their
'doings' all over the place too. You'd never sit at a park bench again, or
walk on a pavement, or do so many things we take for granted for fear of
catching something, or touching something 'dirty'.

It's also worth bearing in mind that research is pointing the finger at
over-clean environments as a cause of allergies such as asthma in young
children. A peck of dirt before you die may really be good for you, and may
even prolong that life and improve it's quality!

What they say here in Austria "a baby should eat a kilogram of dirt before
it can walk".
(what they say, and what teh do are two different things, however).

No matey I am not a troll, and yes I know about "birds,foxes, and a whole
host of beings"

I am well aware of the current thinking. It seems to be about 40 years
behind me. I have always advocated that a sterile environment is not a good
thing and have lived my life accordingly. A peck of dirt, maybe good for
you, but dog shit nah!

But, manure that is used on fields and gardens is Horse or Cow s**t, and
unless you fully wash everything that you buy, especially organic crops,
you may well be getting some in your food. Pick blackberries from the
road side and you don't know what else you are eating, at least, now
there is no lead in petrol we are not poisoning ourselves in that way,
but there are almost certainly bits of other things on. perhaps a fly
has been on the blackberry, and the last thing it was on was dog s**t,
or a well rotted corpse of another animal!

Thank you Essjay001, that one line confirms my suspicions.

I don't know who posted the above two lines and had never heard the
expression before. I have just switched on the television and lo and
behold, in Hi-de-Hi - an ancient repeat - the ballroom dancing man has
just said almost exactly that. Strange.

Can we get something straight? The manure that goes onto many commercial
crops is human sh*t..
Sewerage treatment works supply it to farmers.
