riding past a field of cows and calves......2 cuuuuuuuuuute tiny calves playing, bucking and do cow canters etc........que my ex racer passaging along, head in air, tail kinked over back and ears SO pricked they crossed in the middle!!!

could almost see the confusion on his face.........."they are running..............i would like to run too.......................but wait, they are not horses.....................but they ARE running......."

there was also the moment my sis gave her lazy bum boy a bop for,well being a lazy bum, hers ignored her but mine heard the slap and launched off down the road like a wild thing!!!!

my horse makes me laugh :)
 
That's funny - I would have liked to have seen that.

My kick along horse was surprised to see cows and calves in the field he was in last winter. He stopped to take a good long look at them and then carried on walking but looking so far over his shoulder that he nearly walked into a gatepost! He's far too sedate to try passaging!
 
I never got out for a hack this day... fist of all my stupid horse some how got over this wall.. i had to dismantle said wall to retrive horse then rebuild it.. its part of dartmoor national park.. ops

THEN a girl at the yard came flying back on her pony to say she had been chased by a pig.. our pig had escaped.. so i walked down a lane calling mummy pig as she is known.. saying to a neighbour have u seen my pig.. im not to fond of the pig and its about 11hh in pony terms..

horses dont you love em!
 
Rofl, they are funny :D

Mine isn't a hacking one, but D2 has just made me some toast with jam... only she had dropped the jar on the work top; it broke, she picked out the broken glass, then put the rest in a bowl....

I found a piece before it sliced my mouth, she wasn't so lucky and is now bleeding nicely.

Ho hum.
 



shoot me down if you want and sorry for hijacking this fun post, but why bother to wear your crash hat if you don't do up the strap. I have first hand knowledge of a young 17 year old girl killed when she fell from her horse when riding without a hat.

I know it's been said a thousand times before but your photo - although lovely, just made me sad that people are not learning.
:mad:
 
PMSL at CS talking delight in the calves! my little mare was excellent on the roads, except with cows running as you decribed, she found them terrifying!

I love it when your horse makes you laugh out loud they are funny but briliiant! :D
 
awww, cows are confussing beings :p
I also went on a hack today (what a coincidence lol) and was going past a large field with a herd of cows. They started stampeding across the field so Mr Speeders decided "AHHH i wana run with the moos" lol luckly hes not a persistent soal so after trying to canter off he listened and was a good child :D

While we are on the cow theme - there is a herd of Highlands on the farm where I live and one of the cows has just had a calf. Highlands have a habit of tucking their calves up in a dry ditch or under a hedge for a good long snooze while they go off for a well earned graze. Now I'm not sure if this Mother is several cow nuts short of a full scoop or she's just confused because hers is the only very young calf but she keeps forgetting where she's left him!
So she finishes eating and suddenly realises he's missing and sets off round the field bellowing. The cowman has to keep going round the field with her to help her find him. The other night we were walking the dogs back from doing the horses in the next field when she realised she'ld lost him again. She was mooing and making a real fuss and the rest of the herd all seemed to have joined in the search as well. We were looking along the hedge line for him and I turned my head to look back the way we had come and there was Billy Bull, shuffling along and looking in the hedge too and moo-tering under his breath. We had to laugh at him as he looked like a disgruntled husband grumbling about why his wfe couldn't keep the children under control!
We found the calf asleep under the footpath stile, about the furthest part away from where she had started to look for him. Good job there isn't a bovine social services or I'm sure he'ld be in care by now......
