Wandering around the East of England Showground I was struck by those little bits of details, the casual words, the well-turned phrase... the totally unfathomable. So I thought I'd put my own Biglorryblog album together for you... starting with this one above (from a Scania R142).

What am I going to do with you? Moo Moo Land was a single by The KLF, featuring none other than Miss Tammy Wynette.

Get with it dude

Brian,

At a guess, the 'bound for moo-moo land' is a pun on '[All] bound for Mu Mu land' from the track Justified and Ancient by The KLF. If you're interested in their somewhat strange history, then this link may be of help:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Justified_and_Ancient

Mu Mu being a reference to the Lost Continent of Mu:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mu_%28lost_continent%29

Mu is identified with Lemuria in Robert Shea and Robert Anton Wilson's Illuminatus! trilogy:

Hope this helps. fnord.
