Rug Ripping piece of...RANT

[WelshRareBit]

Grrrr!! Murphy has ripped both of his rugs to beyond repair (well one is beyond repair the other one is being repaired...) and I know its not his fault its this ridiculous cack pile of a yard Im on. He's so hungry he's off trying to eat next doors grass and he shreds the front of his rugs so now neither of them are useable and he is now in some poor other b*ggers rug! (I dont even know who's but knowing my luck they will nab it back and poor lambkin will be rug-less)
The one thats in the saddlers I put in on Tues and it still isnt done yet (GETA MOVE ON! Its a 1hr job!!!!!!!!) and to boot some good-for-nothing Ebayer had $50 of my money (sorry pound sign not working) and I have no replacement RUG!!
RAAAAAAAAaaaaaAAAAAaaaaaaAAAAAAAAaaaaaaAAAAAA

And I dont get paid til next Friday so he cant have anything til then - RA~!

got an old turnout would lend you but will be too small, is only a 6'3

 

[WelshRareBit]

Thats a lovely offer Madhector!

Thanks for saying so anyway - any chance you can lend me your yard instead? lol

 

[madhector]

he he

your most welcome, although will be a bit of a squeeze! got mine at home, so have squeezed in as many as can already

 

[WelshRareBit]

Heh dont worry Murphy can have the kitchen!

 

[madhector]

might just work, we may have to put a lock on the fridge

 

[WelshRareBit]

Yup especially if there's booze in it!!

 

[madhector]

lol, imagine what damage he would do to his rugs if he was drunk!

I can let you have a 7ft, but one of the leg straps has been 'adapted' and tied to one of the surcingles. Pm me if your interested. H

 

[flyingfeet]

PM me if you need a 6ft 9" brand new 2000 denier combo (very rip resistant!!!)

My ned used to do that in his younger days (for some reason he's grown out of it), the dearer and more (allegedly) horseproof the rug, the worse he seemed to trash them! My local saddler sewed chrome leather patches on the fronts and "hey presto" barbed wire proof rugs!

 

[WelshRareBit]

Thats a good tip Chris..might look into that!

Maddie used to do that all the time when she first started wearing rugs!! I now get my saddler to put leather on the front of all rugs I buy for her, am about 20 pounds to get the leather put on. ever since I've put the leather on her rugs have lasted seasons not just days !!!!!
heres her with her landa that she had 3 winters now you can just see the leather.

Moon drop - thanks for the piccie - it sounds like thats the road I need to go down then - after all there's no way Im having this happen all the time heh next year he'll be nakie if he doesn't watch out!!
