Buy plenty of Matron's sculpts now!

If he keeps using the chainsaw, the value of his work will soon go up.

What's scary about a Grand National winner?
When you realise we're all mad, life makes a lot more sense.

Well, he was thirty, according to Wikipedia. That's got to be almost as old as the Queen Mother in horse years?

Hoof 'ave believed it! (I know, I've cracked that one before  :-[). Very close, HB. According to one source, a 30 year old horse is roughly age 85 in human terms apparently. The QM was, of course, 100 when she died and in her nineties, had suffered a broken collar bone, a fractured pelvis and two replacement hips (one of which, ironically, was in consequence of a slip at Sandringham stables). It was a hairline fracture that prompted Red Rum's retirement (we don't know if he slipped in the same place .. he might have .. but probably not  :-\ ). 30 years is the average life expectancy of a horse. So, they both did rather well! I didn't know all of that before. What a wonderful educational forum this is.  :-B
:)

Can't help thinking that "retirement" for horses is a massive euphemism.  :-\

Are we equating the queen mum with a horse?

What next? A Tesco lasagne ... with some fava beans and a big Amarone? ;)

Certainly not. Do you take me for a foal?
