. . . seething . . . not going to go into why (have learned my lesson well) . . . I need cheering up . . . what's the funniest thing that happened to you today?

Laugh at my expense - half filled a trug, it was heavy but I carried it across a muddy field all the same, before I'd even got half way back across the field one of my Shetlands had tipped it up lol wee s**t

LOL - thank you :). Reminds me of when, on previous yard where we didn't have the luxury of a hot water shower for the horses, I was boiling kettles of water very early one morning to wash Pops for a competition . . . carried the bucket of steaming water out to the yard and set it down near the boy, turned my back and the little monkey had tipped it up . . . ;).

I spent an hour grooming my gelding.

Then this.

Muddiest area of the field...He looked so happy with himself too -.-
 
Was feeling really pleased I had bought some new wellies so I didn't get wet and muddy feet from all the holes in my old ones - but managed to pour water down the inside of the new ones while rinsing out the feed buckets.......
 
Yeah, the animals have a way of upsetting the best laid plans. I'd the sump plug almost out to drain the oil out of he Landrover for an oil change when the (big) pup decided to join me and give my face a wash. Oil everywhere! :(
 
My little horse. At his first showing show tried to show the judge just how versatile he is by leaping in to the air and kicking out. He was quite excited. His face said it all when he landed, he'd knocked my arm with his knee on the way up, he was very sorry. Butter wouldn't melt for the rest of the show!!! Woke me up I can tell you. Little sod! lol .
 
Bought a brand new grooming bag to replace the old plastic toolbox I was using, it's something I've been longing to do for ages!! Cleaned all my brushes with fairy liquid and a run through the dishwasher, then popped them proudly in the new bag, each in its own little compartment. Fetched in my hippo and proceeded to groom her, then the second my back was turned she picked up the open bag by the handle and then flung everything right into a massive nettle patch beside the tying up post :( good job I love her to bits!!!
 
I went to see my little pony today, and nearly fainted when i saw her hair. Thought shed been attacked. She had just decided she wanted her hair up today so had a few burrs stuck in it and had it pinned back lol

Watching my lot, just turned out after being in all night and morning (hunt on farm), all four having a roll, the TB rolled three times, went for a fourth and ended up on his knees, bum in the air, he looked as if he was praying, then got up without rolling, perhaps you had to be there

our new addition needed rescuing from his stable rug last night. ;)
Not sure whether we should change his name to Obi Wan or E.T...

LOL! One of ours does the reverse and sits on his bum like a dog for a bit before he gets up . . . but I've never seen one do what you have described . . . yours is clearly very special :).

It's the eyes that get me in this picture . . . it's like the pony is saying "oh for chrissakes sort it out"

You have a hot water shower for the horses! Now I need cheering up, I thought I was doing well having running water which isn't on a meter.

Hot water shower for horse is (at the moment) a tad overshadowed by feckwit . . . but I will move past it . . . it will be hard, but I will do it . . . because I'm tough like that . . . ;).

LOL - little monkey!

I feel your feckwit pain, I advertised my LR pony for sale this morning and have been inundated with people demanding to know why she's not a first ridden. Including one who rather aggressively wanted me to justify her LR status. People are mostly ridiculous. I am much cheered up by these new rug wearing options!
 
This evening I watched my tame sheep frolicking with the naughty pony. She chased him round the field like bambi and he was beside himself galloping about with his tiny playmate.

It was the cutest thing I've ever watched. I Love them!
