.......yesterday????
Lastnight after work i head to the yard with my mum and the bike as Paddy is on hacking bootcamp this week, and its actually going surprisingly well. He has hacked out with the bike perfectly on tuesday and then we went out for 2hours on wednesday night as a group of 4 horses. So last night we go to the yard and i say to my mum, i will give him a quick flick over with the brush and chuck his tack on and get going......well this is what i was greeted with....
Ok.......so a muddy horse some might say......but check out the pleased with him self look on his face!!
This was just the beginning...........
He hacked out beautifully with the bike, no napping, spinning, bucking etc. I even left the bike half way and continued alone. He was a good boy. We turned for home and stopped at my mums house halfway back to the yard and made him stand still whilst we chatted etc. I continued along the road and a car stopped to let me past....it was my mum and dads next door neighbour in her brand new car.
We stopped talking for a couple of minutes......untill Paddy decided that he would POO ON THE BONNET OF THE CAR


thats it.....right on the bl**dy bonnet!
I was mortified!
He walked back to the yard with such a smug look on his face as if to say "ha ha and you thought you were getting the better of me"
Needless to say tonight we will be going in the arena in fear of seeing my mums neighbour out walking her dog!!!
