“Persuaded her it was better to stay at the farm than come back with me to the station, but she thought I was kidding. Whatever floats your goat!” Cotterill quipped.

The bizarre image prompted plenty of comments on the social network. “Did you check the data base for insurance and give animal drugs and alcohol test lol,” joked one commenter.
