Graham, you're probably right about farmers being the same. I'm sure if
you asked any of them how business was you'd have got a slow shake of
the head and heard the word merde :-)

Of course this being France there was a stall selling freshly cooked
steaks right next to these animals.

Hi Steve,

Farmers never look foreign do they? Nice shot but the title 'Cattle
Show' has me wondering what the beast on the right is entered for, 'Best
in Mange' perhaps? :-)

I vote for 'more to follow'.
