I meant anyone but the farmer,

and the farm contractors,

and the milk maid.

and the drovers,

[bogeyman]

and the shepherd,

and the drovers,

Perhaps a blind man, with a guide dog? Being unaware that there is livestock in the field? Hmmm?

Not that I have any sympathy for the winker.

You "Wild Thing" - I have heard of snorting Coke... but Tea!!! I know its mid-afternoon and you might need a caffiene hit but thats taking it a bit far Shirley!

Depends on the breed. Herefords are known for their docility. So much so that when the pilgrims went off to America they took a Hereford bull on the ship with them; it was the only breed calm enough to tke on a long sea journey without the ship being kicked to tulip. It's thought that until recently all the cattle in the US was decended from that one hereford bull.

Mind you, it's easy to be docile when you're one ton of beef with two big horns on your head.

Yum!

I think the cows my friend had were Fresians (sp?) Black and white ones, anyway.

Just a quick thought.

Am I the only person who, when they see a cow instantly thinks "steak"?

Nope me too.... yummy rare steak

Oh, I see, well, that explains it.

The kind that allowed himself to approve a war in Iraq on the basis of wholly fictitious evidence.
