Hock? I find a pair of good hocks are a great addition to a well done cob.

Stout is more appropriate.

The mention of Hock always makes be giggle. Many years ago I was on the train to London. I hate going to London, had had a really early start and was a bit miserable. A group of people got on at Reading, they were obviously commuter buddies and they all sat together around me, which meant I couldn't help but listen in to their conversation. One was telling the others about her evening the night before. She had been to a friend's for dinner. Said friend had a hearing impairment which meant her pronunciation of certain words was not always clear. The friend brought out a bottle of wine and announced to the diners "I know nothing about wine but someone gave me this a while ago. Do you like Hock?" Except "do you like Hock" sounded like "do you like cock?". Of course, they all thought it was hilarious - as did I. I was desperately trying not to laugh but they spotted it and started teasing me about eavesdropping on their conversation. By the time we got to Paddington we'd had a lovely chat and I was much cheered up.

Wasting my time successfully....
Are you sure it was a real cob?
Surely that would involve them having to move - which they are generally reluctant to do.....

I love the photo.... But no cob would leave the ground when it's covered with so much grass!

I used to be decisive, now I'm not so sure...
Meanwhile... I took Rigsby to a pole work clinic. The arena surface had been freshly re-laid, all fluffy. It was indoors and hot.
Yep, he laid down for a roll
