I got a call Sunday from a man asking where our horses were. I explained we were at a show but he was welcome to go and look. He then said he was bringing one to stay with us for a couple of weeks and asking directions. He said he had picked up a leaflet. I thought he was a wierdo and put the phone down
Anyway he rang back. I found it hard to understand his accent and put him onto someone that could.
He was close to my house and the man was going to Ireland straight away. On the hoof i told friend to tell him to put it at my house in the stable - where we quarantine.
At first he said he was going on holiday for twio weeks and he wanted us to look after the pony.
When it was left he rang and said he had bought it from Appleby and would be back from Ireland in 6 weeks
I still have not found where it says i am a mug on the leaflet so i can take it off.
Anyway pony is here. Lovely little Shetland. Luckily in quarantine due to wide spread strangles in that area.
I am not happy, and we do not advertise we take horses in these situations, we do help in difficult situations but this is just strange.
Anyway, i am going to give him a bill. What should i charge? I don't even know the mans name let alone the ponies name.
He did give the pony water. Picked up the chicken eggs and left them so they did not break and left the pony/other animals safe with nothing missing. I am just confused over it all. I assumed my OH had arranged something but he knew nothing of it.
