You clearly haven't been trying hard enough.

There was a stray cow wandering up my road in Cornwall a few years ago, in the middle of a housing estate. Two minutes later there were 4 (and I hate to say this) stereotypical rural farmer-type people, armed with "pitch-forks an' all", who chased it into someone's back garden, frightened it half to death, and finally managed to get it into a trailer. Then they took it back to the abattoir at the other end of the village. Surely if the cow is smart enough to escape a bloody abattoir, it should be allowed to remain free?

they aren't exactly wandering free. if you are in the same place as them you are technically trespassing, not that most of the big landowners round us give a toss

| It always seems strange to me to relegate a discussion (even a joke one) of ethics to 'art'. Why should the discussion of practical matters (of how to behave) be 'artistic'?

Einstein - I've seen them in the flesh in Kent. Pigs do stray, I'm sorry if this has any way changed your views on life.

Surely a promotion rather than relegation?
