Major pathetic yard conflict

You guys live the life of luxury, I don't even have a stable to wee in, I have to squat behind my container/shed thing which is in view of the mad lady next door who happens to be rather nosy :eek:

I'd just go to booker/costco or even Tesco's and get a massive job lot and pray it shuts everybody up!
 
What a load of drama queens!!!! Why did you all allow Barbara to bitch for days about it in the first place and provide an audience for it - sounds to me like you all deserve to waste each other's time.

I do agree it's pretty outragious to nick someone's wipes from the loo and use them all on your horse, then dump the empty pack outside the stable! :mad: She should replace them, and apologize.

I thought this.

Our YM buys the loo roll for us. Lucky us!

We have a mystery sanitary product flusherer on our yard... LOL
We have signs on all four walls of the toilet that say:

'Do not flush sanitary products down the toilet
They block the drains
Bag them up and put them in the big green dustbin'

I found it rather funny as they were on all four walls in a room not big enough to swing a cat in. :D
 
Hahaha, this thread has brightened up my afternoon! I don't even have a tiolet at my yard, we have to squat! Could you not bring our own tissues up?
 
I apologise if this has been said before, but why not set up a toilet paper rota? I know it's easier said than done, but if you're all adults, then I don't see why it wouldn't work. I've got a milk rota on my yard and it works splendidly.

As FionaM12 said, I do think at least an apology should be given re the wipes being used on her horse... but all in all, it's toilet paper ladies :)
 
I'd present her with a giant box of bog roll, nicely wrapped in paper and bows. After that do a collection and buy a huge supply for general use. But using a pack of wet wipes on a horse was a bit much, the girl returned should replace and apologise.

This may sound ridiculous to some people but my livery yard has had the mother of all arguements over loo roll. Our little loo at the yard has a sign at the door please bring your Own loo roll as it is a DIY yard beside a farm an there is no assigned ym just the farmer. So anyway A girl called Barbara bring baby wipes with her to the yard and she left them in the toilet a month ago by accident and Katy went in an hour or so later and used some wipes and brought the rest to spruce her horse up before a show that afternoon. Babara realised when she got back and saw the empty Packet of wipes on the floor outside Katy's stable. She was furious and bitched to me and others for days about it and even went as far to calling her a thief!
Anyway a month has passed and Barbara has stopped bringing baby wipes and now brings "andrex extra soft shell" or something and locks it in her tack box as if it is jewlery. She did exactly the same thing and left it in the loo and went back the next afternoon to find it all used!

She has hit the roof! Threatened to get us kicked off the yard even though we dont know who used it. Barbara is cousins with the farmer and can be minipulative. We all live the yard apart from barbara. Any advice! It is so immature.

to be honest, if i kept buying stuff and it got used and never replaced everytime i go up i think i would be annoyed too. Simple solution, BUY YOUR OWN, not exactly expensive!
 
Oh my god, never has a thread made me so grateful for the yard I am on! Not only do we have a loo (can't believe people pay to be on yards without a loo :eek: ) but the YO supplies it with paper for clients (not posh paper but adequate). Going to kiss her next time I see her! We even have paper towels and soap!
 
Barbara should use some baler twine to tie her loo roll around her neck so she doesn't forget it.:cool:
But, if the rule is bring your own other people should know that any left in there isn't for everyone to use.:rolleyes:

Sounds like Barbara is a right old fart - fancy getting your knickers in a twist over such a wee thing!

*sniggers* at the "wee".


I still think I'd be a little cross to find the empty packet dumped on the yard! It sounds like Barbara's overreacting, but sometimes there's a build up and history which causes that. Straws and camels' backs come to mind.

exactly, sorry for the pun but it sounds like they have taken the pee out of her and this was the last straw.
 
hehehe, poor old barbara, i'll bet she's miffed as she got caught short with no loo roll and had forgotten her tena lady that day too:eek: I can quite imagine a few of the liveries on the farm where i am to react like her though which is quite embarrassing to admit:o I'm glad i'm in my own field with my own little loo in the caravan if i need it:p

My yard's work in progress really. A new building is planned (partly built) which will have storage facilities, tack room and loo. We have a temporary tack room and not brilliant storage meanwhile, but I don't mind as it suits Mollie and me so well in other ways.

If there was a bad atmosphere on our yard over loo rolls/wipes, I'd just go out and buy a load and some wipes for Barbara. Then I'd suggest we take it in turns to stock up, on the understanding supplies are not taken from the loo for use on the yard.

I do rather suspect the players in this story don't have a lot going on in their lives if they're creating a drama over loo roll. :rolleyes:






Mind you, we clearly haven't either judging by the length of this thread! :o:D:D
 
No one has answered Fellewell's question yet - did Katie get placed ? :)
We've got a toilet, loo roll, HOT running water and a proper towel.....
The only time I've objected to the over use of loo roll was when I took a friend hunting and she wee'd in my lorry - drip dried ? Nope - used loo roll and then just left it on my horses side - nice :(
 
Ha ha this made me giggle

Barbra and Katie should go on Jk show, you can be the voice of reason. Then a lie detector and DNA to see if Katie stole the loo role. They can go to mediation with the genius grahame :D
Yard dilemma :)
