BEVOAPABM   
Many years ago (~40+), in at least a couple of pubs in West Cornwall,
you could see a painting of a moonlit farmyard featuring the rear view
of a pig. The painting would be titled BEVOAPABM, which IIRC stood for
Bird's Eye View Of A Pig's Arse By Moonlight. As I remember seeing it
in at least two pubs (the Cornish Arms, between St. Ives and Carbis
Bay was one, can't remember the other), something similar was probably
in a few others. If so, it suggests there was a tradition or story of
some sort attached to the painting. Does anyone else recollect seeing
such a painting? Do any still exist, and what was the explanation or
story behind them?
