"Until the cows come home" How did that saying originate ?

Here's an explanation: http://ramblings.aaronballman.com/?p=254

sounds like it dates from the days when society was more rural. It could conceivably mean 'all summer', since cattle would often be taken up the mountain for grazing, where it would be cooler, until the weather got too bad for them. It's called transhumance.

Hello fagin, you're up late - haven't seen you for a while.

Going to highjack your thread for a post, logman. I do hope you don't mind. BTW I still think my explanation is the better of the 2!!! Thanx for the stars.

Hi, jno. I come on AB less and less and I think I shall keep to just one or 2 topics like this one, Films and B&S...
I was around late the other evening as Mister was away so I had no night call! Here it's cold and icy white. As I hadn't seen you around for a while I thought you'd left for pastures greener - site-wise I mean.
Love, fagin xxx
