    @sundogplanets "Det är ingen ko på isen så länge rumpan är i land", or "No cow is on the ice so long as their butt is on shore"

    Meaning "Don't worry about it" cause the cows aren't going to drown even if the ice breaks

                      @sundogplanets In Dutch: (Je moet geen) Oude koeien uit de sloot halen - (one should not be) getting old cows out of the ditch: you should not harp on about grievances or wrongdoings from the past.

                      Bij de pinken zijn: Being with the yearlings (bullocks). Being clever, alert, witty.

                          @sundogplanets "like a saddle on a cow" is a russian idiom to describe something that doesn't go together with something else at all

                              Where are cows born in the UK? Uddersfield.
                              Why can't cows stay still? Because they're always moo-ving.
                              All the above it true or it could be utter bullocks.

                                        @sundogplanets another dutch one: Er is geen koe zo bont of er zit wel een vlekje aan.
                                        There isn't a cow so piebald or it has a speck.

                                        Meaning: no smoke without fire, there must be some thruth to the rumor.

                                          Where are cows born in the UK? Uddersfield.
                                          Why can't cows stay still? Because they're always moo-ving.
                                          All the above it true or it could be utter bullocks.
