Do you get the vet bills?
I wouldnât be at all surprised. I expect some kind of lie about getting jobs to fund it.
You will end up there mucking out when they havenât got time for livery because of exams etc.
Make sure they buy your wellies out of their budget!
Claire says weâll save the difference in a horse account towards stuff like that. I said theyâd been planning/conniving this for ages.

I like Le Chameau wellies, theyâd only spring for Dunlop at best.
Already he sets up the excuses

Oh well. that is Christmas presents sorted out, they will need waterproof horsey jackets for the winter.
One of these each should do the trick
Ellie already has a Musto similar to that, ÂŁ99 in TK Maxx.
Are you up for the vetâs bills ?
I assume theyâre already British Horse Society members? (3rd party insurance)
Yeah, that at least is cheap.
Youâre so fucked.

See above, theyâre going to open a savings account for that and allegedly save the difference between what weâre already paying.
Believe me, I know.

May I be the 83rd person to congratulate your vet on his incredible good fortune 
For him this is the equivalent of winning the National Lottery. Prolly easiest to have your salary paid straight into his account 
Do also take time to enjoy discovering that horses are the most fragile, frail, disease-prone, fussiest, pickiest and hardest-to-house of all creatures, and can only thrive if constantly in receipt of the most prolific and expensive offerings of goods, foods and healthcare.
A good friend of ours is owned by a horse [sic], and she has confirmed in my mind that horses are a unique form of mental illness. You have my utmost sympathyâŚ
Youâre welcome to pop round here any time for a square meal, cos you sure as fuck wonât be able to afford human food any moreâŚ
