    Bovine Attacks

    Man lucky to be alive after cow attack. Couple hospitalised after cow stampede, Woman trampled to death by cows. All of these stories are from last month. Surely it can only be a matter of time before a famous celebrity meets this fate? Who do you think it will be? My money is on Christopher Timothy, who unwisely comes out of retirement to do a special Christmas Edition of "All Creatures Great and Small", only to be crushed to death whilst filming a calf delivery scene. Please use this thread to record stampedes, tramplings. gorings and other mishaps involving cows.

    If you could read properly, you would quickly realise that this is not what I am arguing. Please keep your moronic, puerile and infantile posts off this thread. Many thanks.

    Bovine Attacks

    Cows are statistically more deadly to walkers than cyclists are to pedestrians, reveals the totally unbiased Cycling Weekly. Seventy four deaths caused by cows in the UK in five years and not one of them a celebrity. At least we have this thread ready and waiting when it happens, which it surely will.

    Great thread. (I'm just posting this because I can)
  14. That's right. And this mod is watching, if not moderating. Or posting. Actually, I'm not sure what point I'm trying to make here, so may have to warn myself for going off topic. @Boudicca, don't we make a great team?

    New Here And Just Saying Hello

    I've been a member of this site for many years. I've been promoted due to being extremely well connected, but rest assured I'm as easy going as the other mods and admin. Otherwise I would have picked you up on your unnecessarily vulgar language. As long as the Bovine Attacks thread is treated with respect, I doubt my elevation will make much difference in the grand scheme of things. Achelous
