I think all horsey people should be barred from supermarkets

I think banning them is a little harsh, but I do agree that it isnt nice for someone smelling of horses or whatever when food shopping, its not fair to the other shoppers and some effort should be made to clean up for entering the shop although I agree this is not always convenient. To start barring people would set off all kinds of problems, barring babies with dirty smelly nappies, hmmm !! that would be a start, I much prefer the smell of horses but most people dont like either. Tricky one !!
 
QR - The supermarket that I frequent (not in my horse clothes) is opposite a hospital nd it is not unusual to see patients wandering around in their dressing gowns and slippers.

On one occasion, a patient was seen wheeling a drip stand with a drip and catheter bag attached - I kid you not!!!

So, in the grand scheme of things, I think I'd rather mucky boots and a whiff of sweet haylage than a half dressed ill person.
 
You wouldn't want to frequent my local Tescos then! I'm afraid it is full of country lowlife Farmers, horseowners and such like with boots and hairy jumpers :D

Ooops! Sorry! :)
 
I think RF is right. This seems like the prat who was complaining about horse droppings on the road the other week.
Used two usernames and got abusive. FC shut the thread down.

I agree that you really can't have much going on in you life if you feel the need to complain about something so trivial.

I actually feel sorry for you.
 
wow..... is someone hormonal or what:eek:,having a I hate horses day!!

90% of shopper need banning then

Dog owners in case hairs and dog s**t on shoes
Mechanics all greasy and grubby
Old people who smell and cant help it
Drunkards
Babies in prams who have filled their nappies
Carers who look after old folk
people with real bad bo
and last but not least.......yes chavs

Gosh how bad we all have to shop and do it after we have worked god knows how many hours to keep our horses and pay are bills.

Or is it a wind up to make the day go quicker.....get a horse and get some fresh air :D
 
Well I do public transport to and from the yard which various stops on route.
So far today I have polluted a bus, tube and train, a supermarket, newsagents and cafe.
I've also been known to take myself to the pub without going home first.

very well said!!
 
I've been to supermarkets before where the shelf stackers have actually stunk out the whole aisle with BO! Personally, i find that far more disgusting and offensive than someone going in with riding gear on!

Ok, so someones gone in with dirty boots on - last time i went shopping i actually got stuff off the aisles to put in my basket, unless you're picking up food from the supermarket floor to eat i don't really see how its such a big deal!
 
there should also be a law that people have to wear deodrant in supermarkets!!!!

corrrrrrr standing next to smelly people puts me right off the food im buying.

Oh and when i shop in supermarkets - i dont usually pick the food im buying up off the floor!!

well said!! i mean seriously food is packaged and in clean shelves..where do you shop?! sometimes you are on the way back from the horse and its convenient to just pop in..people are soo fussy horse poo will not kill you believe it or not! :)
 
On occasions, the dear girl has asked me to collect something on my way home. Rarely, I'll admit, because it's generally the wrong variety/strength/colour/price, or simply something which she didn't ask for! That, also on occasions has included a bunch of flowers. Wandering off topic.

If I have horse ***** on my boots, or worse the rear end expelations of sheep, do you honestly think that I'm going to drive 5 miles home, change my foot wear, and then return? If you do, then think again.

Perhaps the original poster would like a sanitising bay at the entrance to every supermarket.

ETS, Blimey, I've been zapped! What a hoot. The word which I intended has four letters. I received five stars. Either some one at admin can't count, or can't spell, it'll be one or the other!

i think all grossly overweight people should be banned from supermarkets. Us horsey folk, because we exercise, tend to be toned and fit. Nuff said. Darius, whoever you are, go away from here back to your tax disc!!
 
I make a point of stopping in the supermarket in my smelly, poo-covered riding clothes. It's the highlight of my day. I also visit hospitals, day care centers and fine eating establishments regularly. It's all part of our evil plot to take over the world. And we would have gotten away with it too, had you not outed us. Curses!
 
This is hilarious! Am howling with laughter.....Poor old OP has some problems but at least it has given us a laugh.
Personally I think all old gits in supermarkets should be banned from giving lecherous stares to girls in breeches and boots while said girls go about their business buying supper and polluting the place!
 
I pop to the shop in all my riding clothes (just have) and have never had complaints, nobody's footwear are completely clean (horsey or not) and my feet don't come into contact with food anywhere.
I don't always have time to go home and get changed to go out back past the yard to the shop, its a waste of time and petrol.
 
Darius Stench you sound like a very sad and lonely person to be bothered to join a forum to post that drivel.

Haha, Darius Stench - sounds like a character from Dickens!:D The
sort that has revolting BO/ underpants never changed/dubious motives/tightfisted/overweight & a **** stirrer! Darius, Darius, Darius - you must be all of the above!:D
 
I reckon this is the same person who complained about that woman in riding gear shopping in Tesco. Probably miffed the general public didn't sympathise with his/her plight (of having to breathe country smells and possibly standing on a miniscule bit of muck) and implement a general ban.

Personally I think every parent who allows their child to ride in the trolley should be banned (along with the kid). Those dirty shoes in a place where you put your shopping? Also, every person that licks their finger to open a bag (even the ones that open as they are pulled out). Think about it, they then go on to touch things that you are going to eat - YUCK!!! Additionally, those that let their children "play" with store items. I once saw a small girl in Asda open a lipstick, apply it to her own lips and put it back on the shelf. The mother couldn't have cared less. Oh, and please give me the power to ban folk that pass wind while shopping. There is not a more vile stench on the face of the planet! So, there are plenty of far worse things in supermarkets than a pair of jods and riding boots.

Two abreast means there is an anxious horse on the inside who is very often a youngster getting road experience. Would you rather we rode single file and let the greener horse spook and career out of control causing an accident? Get rid of every car and their filthy, polluting exhaust fumes is what I say.

OP - Get a life and quit trolling forums with your feeble, narrow-minded spitefulness!!
 
I've just recalled an incident that happened at our local shop a few weeks ago- OH and I stopped by on the way out for a meal to get some cash and we got whistled at by the cashier :eek:

It turns out we both go in their regularly (him in the day to get munchies/cigarettes/other trivia for the office- so wearing green army kit, and me invariably in the evenings to grab something for dinner IN POLLUTING RIDING GEAR :rolleyes: )

Clearly cashier feels she knows us both well enough to make such a lude comment about the improvement when we 'doll up' to smart/casual wear :o :D
 
I think the OP needs to move back to the city which is clearly where he came from. He obviously prefer the smell of exhaust fumes, the sound of sirens, and the clogged roads......s0d off Darius D!ckhead. I think he is clearly a small man with small man syndrome and clearly a very small knob! I get the feeling that he may have been snubbed by an ex-girlfriend or ex-boyfriend who may have been a horse lover

Having 2 periods this month are we, maybe HRT would help, pop off to the Docs and do yourself a favour, as no one on here really gives a toss.

I think people with their fat stretch marked bellies hanging over their pants with their obnoxious little tattooed peirced eared state fed housed offspring standing next to the meat counter should be banned, but then we cant have everything in life can we.
