We live next to a field where a lady keeps horses. She has been there for years, we have been there for 14. The horses have escaped around 5 times over the 14 years.
We live in a country lane with a sharp bend, so when they are in the road it is dangerous. Those four times the horses have been in our garden and completely ruined our lawn. We have never said anything however fast forward to Thursday ...we heard them in the garden at 3 in the morning. They the left our garden onto the road (8 horses) we contacted 101 due to them being out in the road.
My husband has spoken to the lady today.. she went completely crazy at him, telling us it's our responsibility to keep them out of the garden.. now my husband is fuming and said he wants her to pay for the damage to our garden. My AIBU is to think it's not our responsibility to keep them out?
