As in man bites dog?
I'm a woman, and a rambler - can't say I've heard of one of us killing a cow (except by proxy in the supermarket). Quite like cows as it happens, though usually preoccupied looking at wild flowers etc. ;o)

That can happen, many wild flowers are poisonous - I read somewhere that buttercups are poisonous to cattle. Ragwort is very poisonous to horses.

You considered a job as a newspaper sub-editor? Somewhere like The Sport, perhaps.

Sub editor hmmmmmmmmmmm. That means I'd have to make sure nobody gangs up on anybody, easy job!

I have heard that about ragwort plus it can give very serious rashes to humans as well. The banks of the River Deveron were infested with the stuff until they cleaned it up with the help of some kind of Japanese bug which seemed to kill the plant.

Now they need some Japanese amphibians to eat the bugs which are taking a foothold...then they''ll need some Japanese birds to eat the amphibians before they push out the indigenous stock...then some mammals to kill off the birds....then plant some ragwort to kill off the mammals....and so it circles endlessly.
