Saturday just gone is usually sharer's day to do the horse. I have two other horses at same place (my parents farm) so I am there anyway, it just cuts the work load down. But Sat just gone, she text me saying she was too unwell to come today.
I must emphasise, I am not moaning, I am completely fine with her not coming if she doesn't feel up to it, as I say I was there anyway so just did him myself, but I was thinking about it this morning, and if I was ill, there is no one else to do my horses, so I have to do them come what may.
Shouldn't a sharer do the same? Or is it seen as less of a responsibility because it is not actually their horse? It is part and parcel of having a horse isn't it, doing them when you are unwell?
Again, I am not having a go, just a ponder!
