A animal loving FB friend today posted about a girls horse that she was out riding, stopped to adjust the saddle and it ‘bolted’
It then trotted off up the grass verge and was clipped by a car.
I commented along the lines of it not being under control. All the horsey types tried to say that it only bolted because it was scared, nowhere in the shitely written article did it say the horse was scared by a car, just that it bolted, maybe she nipped it doing up the saddle who knows.
It was of course the car drivers fault that a bolting horse was clipped by it and couldn’t have been the horses fault or the riders.
I don’t mind horses, in pies, or fields. Actually I hate them, but that is having dated someone who loved horses.
