You find random packets of bute in your clothes drawers! :rolleyes::D That actually happened this morning haha. Anyone else care to share what they think shows they have horses? :P

Oh I have another, When you've just ridden your grey horse bareback then go shopping afterwards and the guy on the till asks you why your arse is white :D
 
Lol at the hairy bum haha. Been there!

I have a hoofpick in my handbag, treats and bailer twine even in the pockets of my smart clothes.
Tack in the bedroom, my male friend nearly passed out when he saw the amount of leather hanging on the end of my bed lololol!
 
There's straw/shavings in your wellies, clean saddle pads on the kitchen table and bridles hanging on the toilet door, saddle soap in your work bag, (I use nightshift to clean tack), clean driving harness over the bannister, muddy wellies by the back door and a car full of hay
 
... You go to the shop to buy a bottle of wine and some random bloke points out you have straw in your hair. On this occasion, I hadn't even been mucking out - pony was on 24/7 turnout and I had been looking in my tack room for something!
 
You know you're horsey when you think its perfectly acceptable to use the gap between photos and wedding breakfast to nip down to feed your horse, trying not to get hair on your bridesmaid dress.
 
When the easiest way to keep a track of your daughter in the park is to clip a lead rope onto your bra strap and get your daughter to hold the end of it. Then you both go for a trot round the park with your 3 yr old yelling 'trot on' or 'waaalk' and you obey :rolleyes:
 
....... When everything you own has some hair/straw attached to it somewhere!

........ When you're driving and see some dumped rubbish and expect your car to spook

........ When the idea of scooping the soggy food out of the sink turns your stomach but you clean a sheath without protest
 
defo telling the dogs to 'walk on' and holding the dogs lead like reins......hoof picks in bags.....straw in my bra and pants (dont even kno how that happens)......putting off going out with your friends just because u want to go have a cuddle with ur ponies :D
 
When you tell your husband to 'Get on' when he is dithering around leaving the house etc. I even say it in that 'horse won't go forward and is being a prat' voice.

Also, when my husband recoils every so often - telling me I smell like horse p*ss :(
 
I was giving guests, rides on my lad on my wedding day, we had the reception at home, I swore before the event I would wear my dress for two days, on the day, someone mentioned the horses, I was into jeans and T shirt, tacked up and giving rides on the yard before you could say "SMILE"
 
when you're shopping and can only remember apples and carrots for horses...what was the other stuff on the list?

i have also clicked at my mum to herd her from my path without thinking. Was a totally mistake :eek: whoops ;) haha
 
The coffee grinder handle has bridles hanging on it almost permenantly and you look blankly when a visitor assures you that this does not happen in all houses (I still think it does, or at least should :p )
When you buy your work clothes and shoes from Dunnes preferably in their sale, but don't expect to pay less than £50 for breeches :)
 
When you have more jodhpurs/breeches than any other leg-clothing.

You look at other animals and compare how they move to horses (my dog always 'canters' on the 'right lead')
 
haha i do the seeing rubbish in the road and expecting the car to spook!

once I was walking the dog and started putting my hand up to all the cars that went past! forgot I wasnt on the horse oops!

There are bits of horse hair in the screen of your Galaxy!
On a Friday night your not out on the town, in your finery drinking and being all sociable...your lounging on the sofa with manky breeches on, smelling of horses on H&H online!
 
You make a jump out of everything. Eg, in a housing estate, you estimate how many strides between the front garden fences; or, a raised garden would make a nice bank to jump up or down; or driving in the country you're looking at nice fields to gallop in. You get the idea....
 
When you ask the hairdresser whether they'd mind giving your daughter's forelock a quick trim and they look at you blankly...
