I was subjected to a stressful morning on Sunday, I was due to go to work for 2pm in A&E (which I was not looking forward to, as it was such a gorgeous morning) I'd washed Ralphs mane, tail and fetlocks the day before so that I could get down early and trim him.
My first encounter was a loose pony that had kicked his door so much the bolt came undone. He's new and I was not sure what he was like until I tried to catch him and the ears went back followed by a swing of the hind quarters......I moved as quickly as I could (I'm not quick on my heels at the mo due to an accident) and my heart hit my mouth at speed, then the cavalry arrived and we managed to get him in
Back to Ralph and his feathers.....Oh no the Von Trap-Roberts family have arrived and all hell lets loose, the dogs are now eating Ralphs feeds and his apple has gone
In tow of the Von Trap-Roberts are some more children, which takes the amount up to 6
One of which is about 3 foot high so, I assume the little pink welly bootied mass is only about four......
I carry on with ipod turned up and give Ralph his brunch, less the apple
He's not happy
I'm just finishing off and have swept up outside my stable and turn around to find a bright pink mass stood right behind Ralphs legs
Lucky for this little person, Ralph is the most gentle of amimals, hastily I moved her away and knowing who should be in charge of this little person, I went to the tack room where Mrs Von Trap-Roberts was sitting eating carrot cake that she had made for everyone
Who does this little person belong too???? Oh me, well I said I found her standing behind Ralph and although he is a good boy, he might not be and I really do not want to rescusitate a child before I get to work.......Thank YOU.
Why do people do it? So I went to work with the hump and explained my story to all my friends at work, who have no idea about horses and were obviously horrified
