Someone has parked…

[HorsePark]

A horse, an actual horse, complete with carriage outside my house and secured it to my drainpipe!

@HorsePark

Ok here is diagrams…

That’s such a good drawing of a horse, you didn’t need to label it 😂

@kittensinthekitchen

Maybe he's your new neigh-bour

😆😆😆

This will be your new theme tune

😁

I just going to leave this here...

When we were kids we often took my sisters horse home to bath him , we lived on a normal housing estate - our neighbours were accustomed to seeing a horse or two parked in the driveway .

@ThisNameIsDifferentFromTheLast you literally beat me to it!

@HorsePark

we also see horses tethered on the verges quite a lot too

Yes, I do see this quite regularly. Just not normally to my house! 😂

A few times a year there will be a post in the local FB group to say ponies are running loose on the green.

Oh my god you must live in the next village to me 😂😂

I came back just for the diagram and I wasn't disappointed 🤣 that little horse drawing is fkn adorable 🤣👌

This deserves to be in classics for the quality of the diagrams alone... @mnhq?

Agreed

Here is another photo of the carriage/buggy taken from upstairs window. As you can see they ‘parked’ neatly between my No Parking cones! 🤣

We do get problems with people parking outside the property. At New Years we had a whole family of cars come and park, they then spent 15 minutes taking group photos outside the house. It is a nice background I guess.

Doh, forgot the photo

In all seriousness, does the horse have water and is it tethered properly? If not, I would report to World Horse Welfare or BHS Welfare (I’d not bother with the RSPCA, they’re worse than useless).

Why do all the photos look like they've been taken on the first every camera-phone, I call Shergar-nanigans on the whole tale. Love the diagrams though.

Ever* stupid auto-correct

Why do all the photos look like they've been taken on the first every camera-phone

Because they are taken through a window and/or super zoomed in to avoid too many identifying details.

I would keep the pony - hth.

Poor animal, it must be ex-horse-ted.

With the price of petrol, I'd borrow it and go and do your weekly shop.

Have you looked around for Tonto sprinting on the spot? I have heard that the line ranger often left his injun running.

It's not that uncommon to see this in the small town I used to live in. I lived near a little grassed area (part of the nursery garden in the town centre) and often saw horses grazing there. More common to see them with wooden versions of the racing carts as in the YouTube video above. We have many settlements around for the traveller fraternity and strong ties with a few big families and that's where the horses and carts come from.

That horse is never going to leave now, I guess you're saddled with him OP (sorry, couldn't help myself )

@Marylou62

I so want to join in with the puns but I'm useless.. I'll just enjoy yours.. My DD used to bring her 16 hands horse into our garden.. We live on an estate.. All the neighbours used to come for a stroke...
