Oh god, that feeling of dread when your phone rings, and you see its the yard calling.
I quickly answer my phone, bracing myself for what will inevitably be bad news .
I have two horses, one's a field ornament, although quite a high maintenance and highly strung one, and the others the one I ride and compete, and even though he also has his quirks, Im lucky to have found such a perfect, talented horse .
So, I answer the phone, praying that the first name I hear is that of my retired horse and yes it is! Phew but whats the damage? Ive only got low veterinary insurance cover for him.
OK. All horses are physically fine and no one is injured. Hoorahh!!! My delightful retired horse has wrecked his neighbours rug. Crap. So, Ive offered to pay for its repair, and now Ill have to double fence my delinquent so he cant reach his neighbour. Bloody horses!
