Boris Johnson has revealed that he is working on a "project" to perfect the art of drawing cows.
The former Prime Minister, who has been on the backbenches since leaving post in September, previously admitted to painting model buses using old wine crates as a form of relaxation.
Now Johnson has shared details of his new unusual hobby in an interview with close ally Nadine Dorries for TalkTV.
"At the moment I've got a project, which is to master the form of the cow," he said. "Cows are actually far more difficult to draw than you think.
"How many toes on the front does a cow have? It's two, and they've got a little thing on the heel. And what do you call that bit of the cow? I think it's called the withers. What do you call the back of the knee of the cow? The hock...
"They repay a lot of study. So, I'm filling a book now with cow. Pictures of parts of cows, and a lot of whole cows and my objective is to master the cow. I'm getting there. Next stop the horse, after that."
Friday Night With Nadine airs weekly at 8pm on TalkTV.
