GAS LEAK




A massive pig with flatulence like Vanessa Feltz after Christmas Dinner, triggered a minor emergency near Bendigo (Victoria) this week when smells wafting from the 120kg porker sparked fears of a potentially dangerous gas leak.
Two Country Fire Authority tankers and 15 firefighters turned out in darkness to search the source of the leak at a property at Axedale, east of Bendigo. But the likely culprit was soon sniffed out, the pet sow startled from slumber in the dead of night.
"She got very excited when two trucks and 15 firies turned up and she squealed and farted and squealed and farted," said fire chief Peter Harkins, pissing himself and holding his nose at the same time.
"I haven't heard too many pigs fart but I would describe these ones as full-on."
Mr Harkins, who doesn't normally 'dig' on swine, said the family had done the right thing by calling 000 to report a suspected gas leak.
