Mine kindly offered to bring mine in for me - he caught the wrong one! His excuse - he looks similar (different breed, colour, hogged) and he came over to him so assumed it was him - duh!!!

My dad did that once - brought in a bay gelding to feed instead of a chestnut mare (and didn't notice - fed him the feed and put out again before someone told him). Wouldn't have been so bad but she was his horse!
 
Mine once went to get mine in (totally non horsey) and let the other five out of the gate as well. Also once when I was too ill to go up I gave him instructions as to what bin feed was in and what it was, he came back and said that
he's given some nut cake things? Turned out he'd given unsoaked sugar beet, so cue me being driven on my bed of pain up to yard to give Epsom salts to empty horse out, this was about 30 years ago so probably not the done thing now.
 
Gosh Jenni he could be the twin of our choccy lab!

My mum could join in with this husband thread - when I was young she also turned my pony out in his brand new jute rug (which was never jute coloured ever again!) and I have had my 16h bay mare for eight years and our 17h chestnut gelding for six years, yet she doesn't know which one I'm on if she spots me out riding!

Another funny one this morning. For a tiny yard we certainly have plenty of fun.

Hunt down the road so all horses have to come in. Friend and I catch at 7am. I hear a scream from box number 2. Get there to find my friend had hung a soaked hay net up, the string had snapped as she heaved it up. She had fallen backwards and sat in a trug full of water. I did my best not to laugh but failed.
