So this is what happens to people whose only entertainment is concrete
cows ;-)

Just for the non-brits, Tom has recently moved back to Milton Keynes  
which
is probably most famous for its concrete life-size statues of cows - you
can't make this sort of thing up. It reminds me of the time I tried to
persuade a south african that it was an English custom to have some men
dressed up with bells on and one dressed as a women, who would be  
given a
stick with an inflated pigs bladder to hit the others while they all  
danced
around.
