Never mind the odd deer.....


Saw the farm manager this evening - they've found the calves.
They'd wandered a mile or so up the road and some kindly person herded
them into a convenient field and locked them in.
Unfortunately they neglected to tell anyone - which turned out to be a
bit of a surprise for the landowner, who arrived back from a weekend
break to find he'd inherited ten cows.

Apparently this sort of thing is quite common in rural communities -
and there's usually a chap hiding in the hedge with a video camera...
the resulting footage appearing on that popular agricultural snippets
show... ( cough ) "You've been farmed".

If nothing else, it prompted some nice beef-related urls...
