Spudlet,

You should know by now that the best murder weapon is a 4ft icicle....

I have one that I was meant to use on some farriers bint down south, but dont think its needed anymore. Dya want it?

Yes, but do icicles kill the undead? As I think that's what this thread is, it keeps returning from the cyber-grave...:eek:

Last 6 horses/ponies have been Welsh, Conermara x TB, pinto, TB, hunter, TB, cob. All lovely horses, each excellent of its kind, but the cob has it all. Honest, matter-of-fact, no histrionics, bold, clever, economical to keep, healthy, lovely to handle, goes all day, after the warmbloods have had hysterics and the TBs haven't coped with the going. And when you ride a cob, you ride a bit of English history, not some high maintenance import. The ancestors of our cobs were probably at Agincourt! Up the 'hairies' - and my current one has a finer coat than our TB. Get a life, get a cob!

Are you talking about Welsh D's? As technically they are the only breed that's called a cob (well maybe C's if you are stretching it 'pony of cob type' isn't it?).
This thread's anti cob sentiments are not directed at Welsh D's - in fact we approve of them.
And I must indeed be the Uber-troll with my post count, yet no bannings! :p

So - are you saying cobs are for slappers? :p
S :D

au contraire, my dear, I'm saying all this anti cob prejudice has its roots in a hysterical fear of having anything of a decent size between ones legs. :D

Cobs are for the grounded and confident, rounded woman in touch with her earth mother muse.

Anti cob sentiment is in denial about its femininity.

A respected Scottish Psychiatrist has said of Cob Envy (as it is more properly known) :

“This is a virus that has been sweeping through our culture and causing great harm. We need to help people understand that success, lovability, power and control does not depend on what body shape or size you are - it depends on other qualities you have; other attributes you possess.”*

We pity you, and we're here for you, but try not to lash out. Realising you have a problem is half way to solving it :)



*Actually he was talking about Size 0 but it all amounts to the same thing.

I have 2 cobs...

Cob 1 - SJ, WH, XC - talented, barmy, fast, broncs, bucks, likes to jump 5 bar gates....

Cob 2 - Dressage, SJ, XC - beat 124 warmblood types at a dressage finals. Won nearly every dressage comp he been too, mostly gets over 70%, never had less than 66%, keeps up an ex racehorse on the beach

What more can I say?

Oh yeah, not only are they not lazy, unlike your skinny, weedy, scrawny foreign bred horses, they actually have a brain between there ears so that they realise that not every single thing in life is going to eat them. So, while you warmblood owners prance about, trying not to get hit by a car because your horse saw a leaf, or failing to actually make it down the centre line in a dressage test, look for me - i'm the one on the hairy cob in 1st place

Its the thread that keeps on giving! :eek:

Maybe we can spread the use of the word cob to more and more negative connotations. How about..?

He had a right cob on him (already in existance in some weird place called derby)

Bacon cobs (don't eat many, they're very fattening)

Or the more inventive...

Stick a Cob in it

Alright alright, its not like you've got to ride a COB or anything

Shove it up your cob

Oh maaaan, I was so COB last night

Did you see the bird he pulled? She was a proper Cob

no? :D

Just found this thread. Unbelievable. My old instructor once told me (when she was teaching me with my wonderful, sharp, spooky, and very strong cob, who got up to half-pass before arthritis put an end to his schooling at 21) that real horse people appreciated any good horse, whatever the size, shape or breeding, and that the people who looked down on cobs - or anything else for that matter - were know-it-alls who didn't, in fact, know anything at all about horses.
