Udderly plausible

SIR – Recent letters (July 24) have discussed aggression from cows.

I was once landed on by a cow, which jumped from the auction ring on to me and the farmer’s wife. We were both hospitalised.

Later, I recounted this incident in the pub to a Suffolk old boy. He lifted his cap, scratched his head, had a think and said slowly: “That do ’appen.” Then he turned back to his pint.
