I gave up the struggle to get the cattle out, and as there was now a lot of grazing since Skramunkel left, I went over to Jan and Nina to tell them about the cattle and horses, and when I came back, the bally beasts were having a feast on the peach trees on which the small fruit were just appearing. I shouted like a banshee, as the branches were being torn off with gusto, but had to make a run for the safety of my yard when a very cocky young bull, hardly weaned I thought, started snorting at me. I can't help it, but when a bull starts to paw the ground and snort at me, I take cover!
I called to the kids's house for reinforcement, but this bovine lot was so intent on finishing off the complete crop that they did not respond to our shouting and arm flailings, so Jan got the hose, and connected it to the irrigation water and bombarded the gluttonous cattle with a strong jet of water. They were actually astonished at this spoiling of a super meal, and looked at us with vacant eyes that tried to grasp the big idea behind this intrusion! Jan kept up the bombardment, and as the beasts could not open their mouths to grasp the branches, the strong jets of water putting a nice spoke into their wheels, they decided to move to a more cattle friendly place, and that was down to the river!
But we wanted them out, as the fence around Jan's veggie garden was not strong enough to keep them out.
Jan went through his yard to get to the river ahead of this lot, and drive them back up, but we were horrified  when suddenly there was a roar like a lion in a trap, and Nina and self rushed over to see what was up! Jan was running around with a tree trunk chasing the herd of terrified horses that had flattened his fence, and was having a field day with his veggies! What a bally commotion, as the horses was not at all ready to leave this unexpected windfall, and Jan was like a ball of fury, but in the end he managed to get the lot out, and we chased them out into the road.
I now had to stand at the gate to keep the horses that was skulking around, waiting to slip in again, out, while Jan and Nina went to fetch the cattle.
We were devastated by the time the whole lot was out in the road, and although the horses eventually went off to look for better grazing fields, the cattle was adamant to get back in, and the cockey young bull was trying his best to push the gate open.
Jan was furious with me, but I felt badly used, as all I asked for was two cows to 'mow the grass!
