 It looks like a yawn but I think he was addressing some hounds.

 Some got a free drink.

 I think you had to look the part and be someone of significance to get one though.

It is said that gates should be climbed at the hinge end when there is no option, so the hounds on the left are using the stile! 

'It's a long road that has no turning' and here there is low cloud ahead.
