Something on Saturday

Cow-59

Key chains. 3 for 1
The flat ones stay in the locks of the dining room window because the Thoughtful Man likes to be sure of getting out in a fire. and because what else would I do with them?
The sill on that window is wide and alot of other cows live there, so it works.
The one with the tiny cow and sheep opens and closes. Why it is shaped like an egg is anyone's guess.

It used to work like a clockwork toy; the opening and closing worked to wind the clock work and the cow moved around in the little scene. It stopped working and the cover got discoloured. So it lives in a cupboard now. But when I was reminded about the other 2, I remembered this one.
It was given to me by a friend from Brazil.
