Re: Beware the cows!
She said: "I was just driving along when all of a sudden these cows came hurtling out of a garden and flew over the car then crashed onto the road.
"Some came over the bonnet and others went right over the roof. I can still see their faces smashing into the glass as the windscreen shattered."
I'm sure it's true but I'm still trying to come to terms with some of the details! So, these cows came rushing out of a garden? Some garden if they could build up enough speed to come hurtling out of it! Over the bonnet, possibly, but leaping over the roof? Obviously the same sort that leapt over the moon!

Re: Beware the cows!
And apparently she was not just driving a car but a Toyota Yaris; and not just any old Toyota Yaris but a £9000 Toyota Yaris. Now I can understand naming the car; after all the effect of a herd of cows on a Land Rover would be quite different to the effect on a Robin Reliant. But why do we need to be told that it cost £9000? Are Yaris's available in the price range £1.50 to £100,00 0? Is it that we need to know the price of everything nowadays; people don't just live in houses, or even big houses; no, they live in £600,00 0 houses. Is it to give us some clue as to the wealth of the driver so that we can adjust our degree of sympathy according to our prejudices?

Re: Beware the cows!
If you want some dreadful cow puns try http://www.cowparade.com/ - now showing in Manchester where they have a Johnny Milkinson, Al Cowpone and Olga Cowbut amongst many others.
Sadly, the Manchester herd is nothing like as good as the one we saw in Chicago years ago. Our favourite was a cow lounging on a sofa watching a TV and called Cowch Potato
