What is it with all these loopy nutballs we seem to have been getting interested in our horses lately - are we the only ones or is there a herd of timewasters doing the rounds!!!!!
We have had 4 different guys all wanting a friesian stallion - when asked for what purpose all replied a happy hacker but it has to make me look cool and manly - so it has to be a stallion!!!! One guy wanted a big black horse as he liked to wear alot of black so a friesian would go with his outfits!!

One lady when asked where it would be kept just out of interest - in her back garden with her other 2 stallions - not that they have any grass but they must be happy as they whinney at her in the morning!, and it also means she can give them a daily bath as she wouldn't be seen dead with a tatty horse - the whole purpose of having a friesian is the hair and it looking cool - don't you know!! - *runs off to find some arsenic!!!!*
And the latest noodle has been a lady that came to look at a horse on 11th of May, kept telling me she definitely wanted said horse and was not a timewaster but had no money, she eventually paid deposit but in 2 bits so had to wait 2 weeks for other half of it before I could cash the whole thing. We told her you have 2 weeks to get vetting and pick up horse after deposit has cleared or you loose deposit - we have had timewasters before! - so after a week or so of chasing her up and numerous excuses a vetting was arranged. Horse passed with flying colours - asked when he would be picked up resulted in more excuses and a lot of umming and aaaghing she was going to give me a date over last weekend. Well heard nothing - 2 week deadline come and gone - still nothing, managed to get hold of her only to get more excuses and it might be next week or the week after, and also she was trying to insure horse - told her she can't until she owns him!!! Asked when she would pay - more excuses, so we told her sale cancelled, also weird she didn't once come and see horse in the 7 weeks since she first saw him in the field. So he is now back in H&H - does anyone have any gin - have run out!!!!!!!
This is my poor little 2yr old that had to be poked prodded and trotted all over the place and will now have to do it again!!!!

Gosh these do seem like really dim people! If they had posted on here with these comments/requirements I would have thought they were trolls, that's how silly they sound!!

You poor thing not surprised you need a gin ! People are amazing -had a similar waste of time when selling one of mine ,but its not just horse buyers I sold cars for over twenty years and could fill this forum with tales of some right twits !
As I always say the brains were not always evenly distributed !!
Your horses look fab and I am sure the right buyer will come along .
 
Oh dear, it makes you wonder about people doesn't it?! Your horse is absolutely gorgeous, if only I won the lottery....

How rude, my two other stallions are very happy in my garden and having not had a little pony as a child is it wrong that I want a horse with a pretty mane to plait?!

People are just incredible aren't they? The blokes have all been watching too much Zorro and the women are just loonies.
