See coming from big ditch country I think I might think that!
I guess because even the yard I mention has a couple of people who would make it their business to know everyone else's business. A horse could easily be in a ditch there but I can't see it going unnoticed.
Feeling pedantic tonight then! It was a turn of phrase, there may/may not be ditches in the vicinity. I fear you are trying your hardest not to understand!
I can see perfectly well how it can happen.
I can't see how it would ever happen to one of mine because I like to think I'd choose better establishments for them to live in
