I was riding my Cleveland Bay which was startled by my Ragdoll and which upset my lurcher which ate my Welsummer

[Bella32]

I was gobsmacked by the title until I saw the poster...

I have a free loading Welsummer here if the lurcher is still hungry?!

Helloooooooo

How are you??????

lol - just my way of pointing out how silly the new classification system is for Pets

ooh - x post: hello BFF

How are you?

I am fab thank you! Just flying out the door though (to the stables lol).

How are you and yours?

Ooh - lucky you! Am considering getting one of them for myself.

All well thanks - catch you later, sweetie

Oooohh..,need details of that one! x

Nothing to tell as yet, just a general decision in that direction.

I believe it's called a 'mid-life crisis'

Sounds like a great mid life crisis to me - especially as you are set up for it

can I come shopping with you?

Gawd yes. Though I tend not to shop so much as sniff

Hehe, we will be a match made in heaven...other people may run screaming but so long as we are happy, who cares?

Exactly - who are we hurting, eh?

I reckon our next RL outing ought to take in a tack shop. You in???

Oh yes

Actually I do need to go to a tack shop...although was thinking of one a little further away from us as our local ones are so horrifically over priced!

You mean like a day trip to a tack shop???

You're just teasing me, aren't you?

No! although i have just looked and the one I want is about 100 miles from us...too far??

Hmmm...I think we'd have to do a cost-benefit analysis with cost of diesel against savings in tack.

How much stuff you planning on buying?

Possibly a good idea...

Quite a lot, everyone needs new boots, two new hats plus countless other bits - lead ropes, reins, saddlecloths...and possibly about half a shop once I get there armed with a trolly

Hmm, will put together a couple of online baskets and see how much difference there is!

Don't forget to subtract the 'Out For A Jolly' factor from the cost though

Which is, of course, priceless

Oh and they have a cafe for coffee and sticky buns too

I'm in.
