Feud !

Two old ladies who are the only inhabitants of a remote Serbian village have hit the headlines after refusing to talk to each other for years after one of them insulted the other's cow.

Ruzica Markovic and Ljubica Paunovic from Serbia's smallest village of Grade, which has no electricity, running water, TV or access to radio, had lived in harmony together for decades.

But three years ago Paunovic stopped talking to her fellow villager after she overheard Markovic making a rude comment about one of her cows.

Paunovic has since contacted local newspapers about the spat and the pair now have become cult figures in the press, trading daily insults.

Markovic said: 'I am having the newspapers specially delivered to me every day just so I can find out what she's been saying about me.'
