18th November 2014 - The Cows of Milton Keynes

This just makes me laugh every time I walk by. Not sure why they are there but they are quite famous!!

Good to see a shot of 'our' cows..........you should have said you were in MK, I am only a walk from there we could have had coffee :) I think they are there to detract from the fact that the poor oak tree has died.....who can blame it surrounded by all that concrete and glass.

Very interesting display. It would be interesting to find out more about the cows.

Animal sculpture is getting so clever nowadays for the natural poses!

Cows in a shopping center? Maybe this used to be a farm a long time ago.
November 18th, 2014  
Ah they've moved! Some years ago they used to be in a field.

Super capture.

Neat find and capture!

Quite a find !! -- city cows that need no milking or feeding !!

@pixiemac It was a last minute thing . Early this morning my sister suddenly said lets go to MK for some shopping. We got there. had some coffee, got a couple of things in Debenhams and walked back to M&S. Barbara then decided her bad leg was really hurting and went to sit in the car while i got some things in M&S/ Very disappointing!! Her leg has been playing her up for weeks now. if she doesn't go to the Doctors soon I am going to drag her there!! That's better got it off my chest!! LOL!! I will give you a shout next time i know I am going and perhaps we could meet for coffee.

@pamknowler I'm laughing out loud at your frustration with Barbara.....especially as parking is none too easy at this time of year!

@busylady Judith, the replica cows are still in a field in Bancroft......and suffer various indignities such as dodgy paint jobs, but the ones in the city centre, I think are the originals

Is it the Bullring?
November 18th, 2014  
At least they should be quiet
November 18th, 2014  
Interesting. I'm curious too.
November 18th, 2014  
Really? Are they are permanent fixture?
November 19th, 2014  
@888rachel yes these are s permanent fixture. I am told they are the original cows. There are others which are copies in a field in Bancroft.

What a cool display - they look quite incongruous there with the stores and businesses around them.
November 19th, 2014  
That does put a smile on your face, very lovely!
