It certainly makes me feel a lot better about my more disastrous life choices.
Let us know, you have the perfect watch to time it

I’m speaking as a current nag owner. And when I say owner I mean that I pay the bills and have feck all to do with the beast.

I also love this thread. Never had a horse myself, but my Mum had them for a sizeable chunk of her life, and I lived for years on a Dartmoor hill farm with horses as well, so I’ve observed a lot. Very funny

Try ginger nuts and jammy dodgers and let Goldie think you have all the time in the world.
Does the trailer have a ramp at the front, is so put the breast bar on, take the partition out and tempt them in with the biscuits. Use a lunge line not a lead rope, and stand behind the breast bar and calmly coax them in, being calm is the key.
If you do walk her best use a bridle not a head collar and one person on the lunge line rather than a lead rope.
Deep breaths and good luck.

Goldie took one look at todays EnormoLuxoBarge Oligarch class transport, decided that this was much more her preferred class of travel and trotted right on.
Took literally no time at all. The snooty twat.

Best dig deep and get the nag one. 
Have you seen the price of Lego kits?

Amazingly, other than general upkeep, the nag hasn’t cost me anything extra for a few weeks.
Apart from time. sooooo much time.
Today was my day off and FoL#2 Lauren decided it was high time I learnt how to make Goldie’s bed:
She gave me 7/10 for that. As soon as Goldie went in she rolled in it and then pissed in the back corner.
She has an admirer, Chester, who was gelded a bit late and so has the desire, if not the equipment, to do the job…
Goldie was less than bothered.
This is Red. Red is stupid as fuck and likes to try and eat scaffold poles.

Mrs M reckons you deserve more than 7/10 for the bedding (fnarr). She says you did a very tidy job.
I like Red

Red is a nut job. Ex racer who will quite happily nuzzle up to you then try to bite your ear off. And as stupid as Nadine Dorries.

Yeah, he’s pretty, but incredibly fine, his legs look like they’d snap if you sneezed on them, but when he’s in the turnout field he thunders around like a fucking rocket.
I like Chester, he’s a big friendly lump.

Fair neck on him as well. Any idea what his racing name was?
