Shils, that is very true, although I think cobs have bigger (donkey like) ears so you may beable to tell them apart.

Welshies however have sticky out pucky eyes so you would, for example, beable to (just) tell the difference between a welshy and a hippo..

Remember the WPS are watching you!


:D

Thing is, would you want such an ugly table in your house?

And the problem with that, you would need big wide doors to get their gigantic lardy backsides into the living room

I dont need to use my TB as a wine holder, I use a thermal mug with a handy strap for my wine when riding.

And hey, your stretching the boundaries a bit by suggesting cobs actually go riding. Surely its more a case of getting their lardy backsides half way down the road and needing to turn back again as its taken so long its getting dark?

I have not read all this thread, because it is patently a daft question.
A good cob has the face of the lady of the house, and the arse of the maid.

Those who are unfortunate enough to have ended up the reverse, are jealous :D

Come here and say that:mad: I'll see you in the car park:p

Anyway when was the last time you rode a horse (cob) that is. A TB is a skitzo speed:eek: that either bombs off:mad: or won't go unless his friend comes to keep them company :rolleyes:

I hope your not planning on riding your cob to the car park? I will be waiting ages........

I would ride the cob where I keep my horses but I cant do the splits and dont want to dislocate my hips....

Wow...is all I can say.

Read the first 12 pages and lost the will to live.

I have a cob, a Shetland, an Arab, a Welshie, a Shire X and a Standardbred. Pretty diverse eh? I'm a horse-lover, not a selective-breed lover. I'm pretty good at accepting the personality of any horse, big or small...no favorites with me, if I like the soul of the horse, then it's good enough for me....

People say this thread is 'a joke'. When it offends just one person, it is not a joke.

People tell others to 'lighten up' over comments that are obviously VERY insulting at times.

Just consider this for a moment...

To what right has someone got to insult something of someone elses? There's that old saying...

'Ne'er a truer word said in jest'.

But I guess it's ok to carry on insulting eh? 'Because it's only a joke'....

Sorry, don't go for that one.

There's a word thats been used once or twice here already...

TROLLS.....

You would need a mounting block anyway...cos cobs are so fat and witherless, that the saddles spin round...
...not that it would be worth the effort getting on, anyway...and someone might see you - urgh.
S :D

guido16 and shilasdair ... can I suggest you deal with your issues about not being able to prise your legs apart, *elsewhere*? I feel your pain, and sense your lack of fulfillment, but this is neither the time nor the place ... ;)

I had a cob once.
Didn't much care for it and went back to baguettes....

Dada dadadaaa da HEY!:D

Now, I'm sure I staked this thread through the heart at least once already... maybe this time, a silver bullet will do the job...?

I wonder if the NHS statistics can show that the majority of people who get hip replacements are cob owners........

:p

ooh, no, use it or lose it. Flexy keeps you sexy.
It's lack of use as does for you.
Like mental powers. No amount of Sudoku will make up for years with a TB.
