Daisy the Cow escapes from pen - RTE slaughters Orwell



Gratuitously lazy, pageload-grabbing post follows...


RTE tonight featured a moooving tale of indigenous Irish enterprise - albeit from north of the border, so some might say it's cheating - in its "and finally" section of the News.

It seems that Daisy, described as a "bovine Einstein", overcame impossible steaks to lead a breakout from her pen on an Armagh farm.

Beefore you say pull the udder one, see for yourself as the RTE narrator slaughters Glenroe, Orwell and The Great Escape in turn.

Talk about milking it.
