This is still making me chuckle and also makes me realise what a loony my horse can be and how I love him dearly for being a little character 
Red the 5yo ex racer also recovering from iridum treatment for sarcoid (me wonders if they zapped his brain too) had a couple of days rest due to other commitments so I thought I'd give him a good ole lunge session, knowing full well there'd be lots of lunacy
I was right with the lunancy, much prancing like a floaty passage-y posh pony when 2 other horses went past the yard complete with almost vertical tail and giraffe head. Lots of silly 5yo with energy bucks and dancing as normal with whizzy quick trot and canter thrown in (normal).
He settles into a beautiful balanced trot then suddenly in the blink if an eye from TROT gets down and has a roll in the sand!!!!!
Me plus spectators covered in sand in disbelief as he gets up has a shake and trots off as if nothing had happened.....
I am still amazed and giggling and wondering what stunt is next He's a proper daft moo sometimes but I do love him to bits!
I don't normally do gushy posts but he's being such a sweetie at the minute and schooling/behaving nicely I felt brave
Lashings of tea and caramels for anyone reading and feel free to hijack and add any other daft stories
