    Out for a walk this morning/afternoon & I pass this field on a regular basis, it has three horses in it, Mam,Dad & a foal. I noticed the foal on it's side not moving & it's Mam n Dad just stood over it looking a bit sad, anyway on the off chance I phoned Rob Royed's Dog kennels & Cattery as that was about half a mile away & ask them if they knew who owned the field/horses & told them I was a bit concerned about the foal as it didn't seem to be moving. They got in touch with the owners & they checked on it, apparently foals sleep like babbies. little blinder was just sleeping :rolleyes: The text I received was brilliant telling me everything was all good & thanked me ever so much for looking out for him & for me to have a lovely day, which was nice.

    That's a nice thing to check. I follow someone on twitter who's pony regularly plays dead and especially when visitors are in the vicinity. It has roped in a crow to sit on it for added effect!

    My Dad used to say "sit in corner n' make a sound like a tunip". Then he also used to sing " Valencia stick your fingers up your bum and whistle through your Barcelona". Weird.

    My Dad had similar daft sayings. Whenever I had a cough, he'd say, "It's not the cough that carries you off, it's the coffin they carry you off in."
