Shepparton is the nearest ' big' city to our small country town. It is closest to us for serious shopping. Had to go there yesterday. And I caught up with the latest doings of these city folk. Apparently they have this genetic manipulation programme where they can predictively breed bovines for specific purposes. I was told that this lot were bred as home decorative items for the local Yuppy market as talking points to impress their Chardonney swilling mates.
