Thought For The Day

    How self-sufficient is the Village? Not very I shouldn't wonder, oh there are cows in the field next to the hospital, so that means there is a farm, and that's where the milk, eggs, cheese, butter, and the potatoes come from. Patrick McGoohan described the Village as having a sewage plant, and electric power station, but what about a canning factory for the cans of Village Food. And then there's the jars of Village Cooking oil, rolls of Village 35mm film, oh and lets not forget the Village's own record label! There are from time to time "special Imports" such as Cuckcoo Clocks, and luxury goods like cameras for sale in the General Store. But much of which is produced for the Village must be produced in the outside world - surely.
