..... that they stink of horses/horse poo??? Then even worse the lovely smelling expensive perfume (Armani £39 in my case) that they bought to cover the stench of horses has had some sort of chemical reaction with the poo and now smells like your grans musty perfume that you found in the drawer???

the haylage we used to get smelled like baby sick and mouldy cheese.
i hated picking my daughter up from school after being at the yard cause i'd be greeted with a very loud "MUMMYYYYYYYY, YUCK U SMELL LIKE SICK"
kinda embarassing in front of all the parents

i know have a great supplier of hay, and now i just smell of the usual horsey stuff

I will have you know that 'Eau de Cheval' is the most expensive perfume there is.

Mine costs me about £7k a year! That makes us all exclusive!

I actually like the smell too!!! But I do shower before I come into work! However my car does resemble and smell like the Donks stable

I love this! I always rush to work and smell of horses! Even better, especially if I've ridden and am hot, I come into work opening windows, while everyone is cold wanting heating on. And I have a nice print on my forehead where my hat has been! Everyone looks lovely, I look like I've been awake already for 24 hours! ! ha!
 
Haha! Know the feeling! My hands have horse poo ingrained into the cracks and my hair is scraped back still from this morning - I probably look a right mess! By about lunchtime I should have put enough hand cream on to remove the dirt in my hands! Yuk!

I've come into work before with a piece of hay sticking out of my hair!!!

I had an account manager ask me why I had wood in my hair - my head was covered in shavings. I told him that I had dandruff!

I love the smell, and TBH, it is my coat that smells the worst. I did once spend the afternoon in my wellies at work having forgotten to take them off when I went to the yard to muck out at lunchtime. Couldn't understand why everyone was staring at me as I walked through reception...
 
i have some great solutions for this problem:-

dirty hand thing - baby wipes - great for getting rid of dirt and they smell nice.
Smell - I spray with impulse and then when i get to work spray my room - that way noone can tell!!!!
stuff in hair - i keep a brush at work

and in the end if anyone complained i would tell them to bog off!!! But from next week i have to share my office

so the other person is just gonna have to get used to it!!!!!
 
My old boss once removed a huge piece of hay from my hair whilst killing himself laughing at me - I now brush my hair before I go into work!

Another one here smelling of expensive eau de cheval. with optional shavings and haylage, lady i work with is alergic to horses so i do have to be careful!!

But do come in after riding all hot and red faced with hair plastered to forehead!!, dont do stables in work clothes but dont have a mirror so hair always dodgy!

I don't smell, but this morning in my bag I found half a packet of very crusty polos, what seemed like half a bale of woodchips, a load of hay and some cat treats. All looked lovely inside my Radley bag!!
 
Oh yes! I smelt of course mix this morning at my desk. Everybody in my office are townies so they must think us country folk have odd perfume!

I always wash my hair after the horses - before work though!
