Having swept up as much as he could on one side of the barn, Vickers took the shovel and started with the filth that has... errrr... been around a little too long. Metal scrapping echoed throughout the barn as he worked the corners and the stalls, only to be interrupted by the occasional whacking of shovel against garbage bin as he deposited the refuse.

He continued this until he was done with one side of the barn, then dragged the bin and the shovel across the way to work on the other side. Indeed it was filthy work, which was all the more reason why it should be done. He always believed that the best way to keep diseases at bay is to keep the place clean.
