I think all horsey people should be barred from supermarkets

[Darius Stretch]

I think all horsey people should be barred from supermarkets. I have witnessed yet again a horsey person striding around the store in riding boots, unclean riding boots if you get my drift, with that stuff that does your roses good.

Well it doesn’t do the cleanliness of the food end any good. This must contravene some ‘Health and Hygiene’ law, but yet they flout it. They have no shame in it.

Is there an element of ‘Look at me I’ve got a horse’?

So what, this is a modern country and we don’t use nags to pull a cart, plough a filed or ride to Banbury cross anymore.

And if they do ride on the public highway they probably haven’t got enough land to exercise the things on anyway, in comparison you wouldn’t be allowed to keep a greyhound in a maisonnette would you?

Or do they ride the things two abreast on the road to say ‘Look at me I’ve got a horse’?

So what, one of ‘them’ once shouted at me ‘Horses were on the road before cars’. True but that was before tarmac, road signs AND TAX DISCS. They may pay the road tax on their clapped out old Saab but that’s not enough. I have never seen one of them dismount (jump off to you and me) with a plastic bag and ‘pooper scooper’, or more appropriate for the size of animal a shovel and bin bag.

I guess the stable lad must be out of range.

Whatever the cry is ‘Tallyho’ or ‘And they’re off’ I say keep your boots and jodhpurs on your kitchen floor and not the supermarket aisle.

Comments welcome.

I think all smelly trolls should be banned from supermarkets Oh and chavs as well

 

[V1NN]

Yeah when i worked with horses, i used to frequently go to the supermarket after a hard days work in my reeking of sh** and haylage horse clothes, i really dont give toss what others think. Theres plenty farmers and fisherman do the same.

 

[hannabanana]

Are you having a bad day or something? Because there is alot worse to worry about than poo on a shoe.

I am getting the feeling your not very horsey? I dont want to jump to assumptions, but if your not horsey and want to complain about horses...why are you on this site?

1. We ride side by side on the road because the inside horse is usually nervous or the rider is nervous.

2. Where do you propose we put the shovel? Its not illegal to leave horse **** because its harmless and decomposes within days.

Have a nice day

If I went into a supermarket and all the food was on the floor, I would probably leave again tbh
And I don't DO tapdancing between the fruit & veg or anything bizarre like that, so what my boots & food have to do with each other I don't know? I don't pick things up with my feet either.......

Snobs who can afford to buy extra hours in the day that save a 20min run home to change clothes and then drag their tired and starving selves (after doing hours of hard work) should just pay for their shopping to be delivered I think..... yes, much better, can avoid all the common people who might happen to also want a meal on the table most nights Sorted!

And last time I checked, horse **** is a lot better for the environment than cars are Never heard of people being able to chuck exhaust fumes onto their roses... doubt it would go down well, would it?

ElphabaFae - nah, chavs should be banned from just about everywhere

 

[stencilface]

In days gone by people were happy to scoop horse poo from the road to use as free fertiliser - now people won't use anything unless it comes packaged from B&Q.

As for road tax - fine, remove the tarmac, we don't care - the tarmac is there for drivers benefit, certainly not for horses!! Its not our fault they tarmaced all over the old carriage routes is it?!

Riding two abreast, means you get more respect from stupid, uneducated drivers who shouldn't be allowed to drive

I think people with BO should be removed from working on the tills in supermarkets, and chavs, and noisy kids, and drunks, should not be allowed to shop there

Well said.... and Chavs shouldnt be on this planet, they should all be shipped off to mars

Indeed, along with many, many other things......

 

[SonnysHumanSlave]

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!!

 

[Fairynuff]

so long as they remove their spurs I dont care what they do!

There should be some sort of invention that automatically sprays a person with deodrant when they walk through the doors, so if your smelly or not before you walk through the doors; it means you will be as fresh as a daisy when you do your shopping!

 

[muffinino]

I agree. I mean, all horsey people are rich, stuck up toffs who don't work 6 days a week to keep their animals and have all day to shop in their designer clothes that they buy because they have too much money, which is why they have horses.

TBH, I wouldn't venture in a supermarket anyway; I just get the butler to shop for me

 

[rosie fronfelen]

i have a feeling this OP has been on before, under a different id---

 

[Berpisc]

Me too RF

 

[hannabanana]

Im sure I had seen something like this but before I signed up on here, may be something similar on a different forum

 

[touchstone]

Well I'd rather stand next to a horsey person in the supermarket than a granny smelling of wee!

As for road tax, isn't there a bit of irony in the fact that cars HAVE to be taxed to go on the roads, horses don't.

Life's too short to get wound up about a bit of harmless hoss s**t. When something goes seriously wrong in your life the last thing that will be worrying you is people who have a horse, there are far better things to focus on in the world.

 

[jessicabeau1]

think this is sooo funny!! I think non horsey people should be banned on a horsey forum...

 

[guido16]

I agree with muffino!
Why on earth would one lower themselves to shop in a supermarket? Lordy me, I aint mixing with the lower classes, you dont know what you might catch!

Anyhoo, one finds oneself can feed oneself from all the home grown products on ones vast estate.
Its amazing what chef can do.....

Must dash, got to get the butler to wipe the ***** from ones shoes.........

This made me laugh and snort

 

[hannabanana]

Well OP if you dont like people with shitty shoes in supermarkets, your not going to like this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g2jKYPv1BJg

 

[maletto]

Never heard of live and let live eh?

Your bratty little children probably wipe their snotty noses on their hands and touch all the food.

I would highly doubt that whatever cr*p is on our boots makes its way onto the food, however.

Besides, ever considered that "what makes the roses grow" also makes YOUR fruit and veg grow?! especially if you buy organic! and if you don't buy organic, you're coming into contact with far worse!

small minded little trolls like you should be shipped off along with the chavs

 

[Chunkie]

Is it just me or is this Shils?

 

[hairycob]

Maybe it was cob s**t that was the problem!

 

[blackcob]

in comparison you wouldn’t be allowed to keep a greyhound in a maisonnette would you?

Ignoring the rest (don't feed the troll, blah blah blah) - have you ever met a greyhound? They sleep 23 hours of the day and are probably the most appropriate breed of dog for a small flat.

 

[Sanolly]

Actually I think it was the OP who posted about us all picking up the **** our horses leave on the road

 

[Bettyboo222]

Well someone must be a little bored today. You are obviously trying to provoke a reaction because you have made an account on a horsey forum to do this one post. I would like to point out that we work hard to look after out horses and we don't waste our time worrying about apperrences. At least we are doing something worthwhile with our time rather than trolling a forum and trying to annoy people we don't know. I would like to see you do some of the things people on this forum do. Like working, looking after a horse, children and a home all on a budget. Why don't you just go away and work out how to socialise ?

 

[rosie fronfelen]

isn't this the same clown who was objecting to horse poo on their village road and pavement- that "person" said then that they would be back!! Troll!!!!!!

 

[muffinino]

One must not mix with the proles, darling!

This made me laugh and snort

I try

 

[starsnrunes]

I really hope your not being serious. However if you are....

Is there an element of ‘Look at me I’ve got a horse’?.

No. it's an element of "i've been at work until 5, at the yard until 7, the supermarket if 5 minutes from the yard and i would like something for tea with out having to add another half an hour, going home changing and coming back out again unnesecerily."

So what, this is a modern country and we don’t use nags to pull a cart, plough a filed or ride to Banbury cross anymore.

And if they do ride on the public highway they probably haven’t got enough land to exercise the things on anyway, in comparison you wouldn’t be allowed to keep a greyhound in a maisonnette would you?

Ignoring the rest (don't feed the troll, blah blah blah) - have you ever met a greyhound? They sleep 23 hours of the day and are probably the most appropriate breed of dog for a small flat.

As blackcob says, Greyhounds actually make brilliant apartment dogs as they are so relaxed...including ex-racing dogs as they are used to being enclosed in small spaces as they are caged for 20 hours a day.

Also, the majority of people have the land to exercise there horses, doesn't mean there going to stay in it. You own a house (i assume) so using your policy of 'if you have the space, why go anywhere else', why go on holiday. You have your home. Use it.

Or do they ride the things two abreast on the road to say ‘Look at me I’ve got a horse’?

So what, one of ‘them’ once shouted at me ‘Horses were on the road before cars’. True but that was before tarmac, road signs AND TAX DISCS. They may pay the road tax on their clapped out old Saab but that’s not enough. I have never seen one of them dismount (jump off to you and me) with a plastic bag and ‘pooper scooper’, or more appropriate for the size of animal a shovel and bin bag.

Actually unlike Dog poo, which is a Bio-hazard and by law must be removed. Horse poo is bio-degradable, there is nothing nasty init. And if it bothers you so much, you scoop it up and put it on the garden (it's better for it than the chemical stuf you get in shops.) and moaning about horses being on Roads...Even if we could theoretically carry a shovel and ba...when our horses go to the toilet. You would like us to stop, get of, spend another 5/10 mins faffing about in your way. Often with large horses that would not happily stand stock still, then another 5 getting back on.(mounting to you and me!) It's dangerous!

And...fine, get rid of the tarmac, road signs and TAX DISCS...my horses won't care, and neither will I. I don't drive.

 

[Rache]

yep, me thinks this the same guy that flew into a fit the other week about **** on the roads. same time, same day
