Now I've spent a bit of time in fields, some containing cows. Never have I seen someone attempt to hit one on the derriere with a stringed instrument !

I don't know about you two, but I've spent a lot of time hanging out near the front of those big farm buildings waiting for some kind of acoustic plucker to turn up to test something else out, but they never do either ..

"Not at the races"

What does that even mean ??
It doesn't make sense .. they're playing - albeit poorly - so they ARE at the event.
