Although I do not smoke myself I have no objection to other so doing but in the right place! In my opinion that should not be anywhere on a stable yard! I have frequently seen other liveries standing just outside the barn door - nest to the much trailer (straw!!) puffing away. As everyone knows, opening your mouth to voice concern at a large livery yard is usually enought to start a fire!!!!
What do you think to my plan of action - I've made up a poster called 'FIRE', it includes 6 cuttings from the press detailing fires in which horses have been killed. I then simply wrote - please don't smoke near stables, can you be sure that your discarded cigarette doesn't re-ignite hours later - it only takes one bit of straw to blow away...... if the worst happened HERE, can you be sure it wasn't your fault?
I don't want to be the target for a verbal attack, but I feel strongly about this. Am I going too far?
