- Contd by Dom McGrath, Castle Hill.My uncle has three cows and he calls them Fanny, Lizzie and maggie. When he has finished milking them he puts a cross on the cows' backs. He ties the cows with chains.
He also has 3 horses and 1 filly, and calls them Molly, Mick and Charley. He ties his horses with halters.
