Close call for my horses in yesterdays storms

[Roasted Chestnuts]

Well this happened stables to the stables with my guys in them Poor K and E

This should have been a hint, we got stuck nearly every road we tried to go down!!

Then this when we had to park the car and walk

Not a great day.

My guys were lucky and got away with custs and bruises. My friends horses were out in the field as only two stables. Its her stables and shes gutted. Its stood for years and never moved even during thos 165mph winds we had last months but this was vicious here last night, the amount of damage it shocking

K was stuck until we could clear all the debris away but E had burst out probably when the wind and roof crashed into the door, Im amazed she hasnt done herself injury as what she would have had to walk/jump over was just hell, nails, broken rivets, glass, the roofing sheets.

So maybe somone was kinda smiling just couldnt give me the whole hog. Thoughts for my friend please as she is truly gutted

 

[3Beasties]

Bloody hell!

Glad everyone is 'OK', that could have been very nasty!

 

[ArabianGold]

OMG - Someone was watching over your horses when that happened..

Can you buy me a lottery ticket because you are extremely lucky nothing serious happened.

Big Vibes for your friend must be devastating

Wow is all I can say... me speechless that’s a first... !!!!!!!

 

[Kat]

Wow, what very lucky horses!

 

[Magicmillbrook]

Blimmin eck - what lucky horses, I think the damage was worse yesterday because of the gustyness (not sure if that is a real word). Was the trailer damaged too?

 

[Tammytoo]

Your horses' guardian angels were working overtime last night!

I'm so glad none of them were badly hurt.

 

[only_me]

Wow, that is unbelievable!
Glad horses are ok

 

[Kyo's Mum]

Glad everyone was ok, it's just awful! Hope you can get it all sorted out ok. Sending you all lots of love and hugs xx

 

[Godknows]

WOW You are so lucky the horses are OK. Have your found any more stables? Or are you going to leave them out?

 

[Merrymoles]

Glad you're OK. It's getting wild again here so hope it's calmer where you are.

 

[Roasted Chestnuts]

[dewdrop_roses]

[dominobrown]

[alwaysbroke]

So pleased that the horses are ok, must have been horrible for all of you

 

[sadiedeb]

OMG poor horseys and poor you that must have been a hell of a shock - as long as you are all ok

 

[Rosehip]

Oh dear God!!! Thats not what you want to find when you go to the yard in the morning! So glad that your neds are ok, I think mine would have had complete breakdowns had that happened to them!
My heart really does go out to your friend, it must be absolutely gutting to have your buildings destroyed like that! Will she be able to re-build, or is it a knock down and start again job?

 

[SavingGrace]

How awful Have you managed to sort somewhere to move them to Nikki? x

 

[Rowreach]

Poor you and your friend your pictures made me feel quite sick - gawd knows how you felt when you got there and saw that. Hope everything gets sorted out for you both very quickly.

 

[dizzyone]

OMG thats awful, glad every ones ok.

 

[yellowdun]

What an awful shock for you and youur friend. I'm glad your horses are okay as they must have been frightened with that going on. A lucky escape

 

[Roasted Chestnuts]

Thank you everyone, it will be a rebuild job I think roofing beams are all off and the walls have been breached in some places.

 

[mik]

Wow, I am so glad you are all OK. Horrific.

 

[MerrySherryRider]

Those photos are incredible. I'm amazed that the horse of yours that got out didn't injure himself on the debris. Really lucky escape for both of them.

 

[Roasted Chestnuts]

HR I was amazed as well at the lack of injuries my horses suffered (thank the powers that be!!) And I don't think anyone would have believed me that my horses had come through that without the pics. I myself would have been sceptical.

As someone said the angels were out in force xx

 

[smellsofhorse]

What happened us horrible, but you are so luky the horses went badly hurt, hope they haven't been damaged mentally

 

[Ebenezer_Scrooge]
