Costa: The woman has undertaken a crazed new training regime where she appears, frothing at the mouth, four days a week to subject me to a rigorous workout before disappearing. Due to the frenzied speed in which she embarks on these endeavours, I haven’t really been able to process the activities, so quickly do I […]
New Years resolutions. Is there a need? Life is punishing enough without willfully torturing yourself in the spirit of ‘new beginnings’. Anyway, everyone else is at it so we had better take a look. Resolve is an excellent quality. Being able to stick to the task and keep your eye on the end goal is […]
The off season. Well named really, since starting back feral event horses can involve quite a lot of impromptu offing. The close of the European season in October generally sees riders (try to) escape for a quick holiday, and horses are let down and rested. The eventing juggernaut will soon be underway again, and you […]
October has arrived, and overnight the sleek showjumpers of summer are morphing into native ponies faster than you can say “Pumpkin Spice Latte”. The bearded cretin that greeted me over the stable door last week was certainly in dire need of a scalping. My current yard offers clipping – thus, one can arrive to a […]

Thus the woman has had quite a gentle run of it – although it’s only fair as she really doesn’t cope well in the heat – I’ve […]

For the enterprising equine, this can cause daily life to become somewhat humdrum and lead to them feeling taken for granted. Aside the deluge […]
In conjunction with her lifetime goal of becoming the Anky von Gobshite of Irish Dressage, the woman has intensified her already over-zealous obsession with the types of machinery she inserts in my sensitive mouth. Of course, she’s not to know that it’s all completely irrelevant since I am possessed of a particularly agile tongue and […]
1. That time you forgot your own hat going to your riding lesson and had to wear the dodgy school skull cap with the riding centre’s initials Tippex’d on the back #nicehatbro 2. That time someone offered you a lift to go to a show when you didn’t have your own transport, and your horse […]
Can you tell a pantomime horse from a real horse? Your hay from your neigh? Your hoof from your spoof? Take a couple of minutes and see if you can identify which cleverly disguised horses are real and which are fake… Source: Grand National 2016
I think every horse owner / rider can relate to this! Unless you’re lucky enough to have a full time groom that does all the running around for you! We hope you all enjoy this perfect horse parody! Share on Facebook if you can relate!
