:D:rolleyes:Well yesterday my bf of five years decided he'd come and 'help' at the stables, his 'help' consists of stroking the horse in the stable next to mine as mine 'are too big and scary' and asking why some horses have stripes on there faces and some have a diamond shape!

Convo then went like this:

Me: i'd like a coloured or dapple grey horse next i think
Him: why dont you get one that has a point on its head?
Me: What do you mean?
Him: The white ones with a pointy horn
Me: A unicorn? (followed by laughter)
Him: Yeah, they're nice!
Me: You do realise that they don't exist, dont you?!
Him: Yeah they do! I've seen them in films!
Me: So are fairys, goblins and ogres real too then?
Him: No course not!! (sounded very defensive!)

Sooo he's amazed me once again with his lack of knowledge!! In five years he's still amazed that horses go 'inside a lorry' and he only knows what a dapple grey is and a shire horse is!!

Got him to buy me a new sheepskin numnah and he asks 'wheres that sheepskin rug i bought you?'

He'll openly admit he's a bit 'thick' but thought he would of picked up on a bit more than that in 5 years!! :rolleyes: :D
 
You mean person shattering his belief in unicorns. Next you'll be telling him that purple horses don't exist :p
 
Show him this :p

Bless him. I still always smile when OH talks about wearing their "coats" in the winter; I've given up telling him they're rugs. So if he's not at work I'll text and ask him to take their coats off if the sun's out :-)
 
My boyfriend asked why some people try and disguise their horses. I had NO idea what he was talking until we drove past a field where a couple of the horses were wearing "bat masks" aka fly mask :/
 
My dad who rode as a child and likes to get involved with my two says things like coats/jackets instead of rugs, calls hoofs toenails etc.

I find it sweet and funny but now i've moved back home and am exposed to it on a daily basis iv started to adopt his termanology and have embarassed myself more than once when chatting to horsey friends and (even worse) vets!
 
My OH will argue with me that grey horses are WHITE, he just won't have it that they are referred to as grey:rolleyes:

In regards to my houdini pony, any mention of him escaping I simply get told 'TIE HIM TO A POST.':D
 
Mine thinks that every time mine rests a hind leg he has 'gone gay', he calls it his poof stance (very pc) and thinks because I plait his Spanish mane up sometimes that I am giving my horse gender issues!
 
Haha!! x

I love how some people assume that if you have a TB, then you go racing with it and ask if they can bet on it :rolleyes: x

lol that's the kind of thing my OH would come out with, i can't repeat some of the things that he says about my speshul ginger boy:o
 
My ex once said that I couldn't ride on the roads as my horse had "clover feet like goats" and any animal with "clover" feet cannot be moved because of foot and mouth disease!!!

Probably one of the reasons he is now an ex!!!

That is a bluddy good idea!!!!!!!! :):):):):)

Why didn't I think of that for my Houdini.....
 
I havent got a OH cos men p*** me off off...but I do have people ask me if our big pony (gelding) is the little ponys mum and the bigger horse is its dad?? The small pony is a welshie cross...the bigger pony is a haffie and the horse is a TB! I also had 1 lady who thought only rich people had horses and to have 'boots' put on cost about £300 per horse per month! Not sure where she got that figure from?
 
My other half once commented on how happy all the horses looked in the field, when I asked what made him think they were so happy he replied 'Of course they are happy, they are all wagging their tails'. Oh how I chuckled :-) He also refers to stables as Horse Bedrooms.
 
I love my boyfriend, he didn't like my previous horse... But comes up now to help me with Buds...

Proudest moment of my life...

He also likes to do his carrot stretches with him *aww*, and has recently taught him to bow!!! I mean literly he has had nothing to with horses at all before he started coming up to mine and now he's got the blumming beasty bending a front leg and putting his head on the ground!! :eek: He just goes ''aaaaand BOW!'' and waves his arm like a conductor and Buddy does it!!! Must get a video! :p

He still won't ride UNLESS its in a full suit of armour to go jousting... Well if thats what it takes... :D
 
I finally got my OH to have riding lessons he asked if he could break in my 10 month old fell pony lol and that all you do is sit on it!. soon changed his mind after he couldnt figure out rising trot and called the reins "handles". HAHA bless him
 
These have made me chuckle.

Mine is pretty horsey now, although doesn't want to ride as it's too high up (yet he wants a Shire) :rolleyes: So Blossom is going to be his driving pony- he says he'll feel better doing that as he can add brakes and indicators :o

Lol. After the grand national this year, my nephew asked if I had taken my horse to those races. Was I on the television?
Um no, I think my 14.2hh Highland may have been a little unhappy if I even suggested the GN to her.

A colleague asked the age old question last night - when do ponies turn into horses?
