My friend and I were hacking up to the mountain and as we passed a field of ponies, one was running along the fenceline, where he came to a broken part and neatly hopped out!!!
We stood there perplexed for a moment and then decided best bet was to have him follow us to a field we could put him into til his owners worked out what had happened.
We herded/led him past about 4 entrances, all padlocked, until we eventually found one that was open - and popped him in there.
Hopefully when he is next checked upon the owner will find him and maybe perchance - fix their fencing!!
So note to all, walk your perimietres and don't rely on baling twine to keep your horses in (as these people had!) Its only good fortune we were passing and stopped to help and that the little one was amiable enough to follow us to safety - otherwise I'd be posting about a completely different outcome
