Don't ask. We're all but done for in any case, taking that Fiona couldn't hit a cow's arse with a banjo, and Paddy and Maureen both cheat like tinkers at a fair.What are you talking about? Why would anybody hit a cow with a banjo?He only smiled. The point is, Fiona couldn't so we'll be done soon enough.
In "Thankless in Death" by J.D. Robb, there's a conversation highlighting a sense of hopelessness. The speaker dismisses any possibility of success by pointing out that Fiona lacks skill, comparing her inadequacy to the absurd notion of aiming a banjo at a cow. This illustrates the speaker's frustration with Fiona's abilities and the overall situation, suggesting that failure is imminent.
Another character, confused by the specific reference to hitting a cow, brings a moment of levity to an otherwise grim discussion. However, the initial speaker remains focused on the underlying issue: their impending downfall due to Fiona's incompetence and the perceived dishonesty of others, reflecting a deeper commentary on trust and capability in their group.
