I just phoned up about a horse for sale. The conversation went something like this:-
'Hi, I'm just phoning up to see if your horse is still for sale?'
'Which one?'
'15.2hh bay mare'
'Yea'
'Can you tell me a bit more about her please?' (advert said hardly anything!)
'What do you want to know?'
'A little about her history, what you have done with her, why you are selling her, is she good to handle, shoe/box/clip, what sort of ride is she, good on roads?'
'Errr, well... just hacking and she's young so of couse she's not going to be good on the roads!'
'Would it be possible to come and see her please?'
'When do you wana come?'
'Can you make Sunday at all?'
'F****** hell, that's too late, if I don't sell her this week, I will put her in foal to my stallion, that will be the easier option.'
'Are you free tomorrow at all then?'
'No, I've got someone coming in the morning and someone coming in the evening to look at her.'
'If it doesn't work out tomorrow, could you take my number and give me a ring and I could pop out and have a look?'
'For f*** sake, you want the horse so you phone me! I've had people phone up asking me 28 questions about my 'orse and by the 29th I turn round and tell them what I think of them.'
By this point, i'd had enough and put the phone down! Do people have no mannors these days?! grrrr! Sounded like a lovely horse as well.
