Think it must be my age - but I've had 2 falls recently!
One - climbing through the gap between electric fencing - got my knee caught on the bottom line and rolled over and under it - flat on my back in the mud!
Left with a nice green rope stripe across my jumper and leg!!
2nd one was a couple of evenings ago. Putting rug on my soggy Shetland in the dark, in stable wearing head torch. (No lights there
)
He wasn't tied up and was noseying about.
Doing the surcingles up is tricky as you have to stoop down and reach under his low slung tum.
I had my right arm across his back, but lost my balance when he moved. Slid sideways across him - he then moved to the right and I ended up flat on my back again in the middle of the stable, in the dark because my torch had turned itself off
I think it's the dark - I get disorientated
