Be wary of those cows. They may look harmless, but how do you know they haven't been fitted with little recording devices, so they pick up everything you say...

Yes, that one on the right is definitely tuning in, there!

Their body language screams "We are not amoosed.

Let them get to the top of the ridge and then start the barrage with the muck spreader

Is the ridge called Hamburger Hill?

Now come on! What the hell are we hiding from ? You know there's NO lions in Lincolnshire.

Yorkshire cows would bite back

They have expressions on there faces, like Yorkshire chaps in a pub who have just seen a Londoner walk through the pub door

Good ones!

This grass is delicious. Yum!

As long as the Londoner pays the first round then we'll go t'next pub

I drank a lot of black cows in my youth. Of course, in those days hey consisted of a scoop of vanilla ice cream in root beer. You could use ginger ale instead. Use chocolate ice cream, and the drink would be a brown cow.
