You know how much I like collective nouns? Marvel at this!
Last night I saw an advertisement in which a woman, asleep in bed, was woken by mysterious noises in her kitchen. Imagine it: creeping down the corridor, dreading what she'd find when she opened the door. It was nail-biting stuff, I can tell you. And what did she find?
She saw (dun, dun, dun)... a ghost calf.
Then she looked outside and saw a herd of cows on her front lawn. That didn't seem to surprise her at all, but among them she was shocked to see (dun, dun, DUN)... more ghost calves. Spooky!
So that's the latest in cattle worming advertising: supernatural cows. Look out for them.
This was followed by an ad for a sheep worming treatment. Obviously these ads are only on because this is a farming area. I sometimes wonder what special urban products we don't get to see ads for here in the country.
