Maybe you ladies would take a chance
They say no one's too old to dance
That wasn't Tom in that film, it was really you
Showing us a sexy move or two
Is that some way to find romance?

Perhaps go to a dancing class?
Less chance of looking like an ass
The ladies usually outnumber men

There were  3 others I saw about a month ago,   they looked like gypsy ponies,  and one was laying down looking a bit peculiar on the grass, and looked dead.
I couldn't stop because I was driving across over bridge and the field was below me. 
I happened to be on my way to the Vets,  but it worried me so a nurse at the vets rang the RSPCA for me.

Nobody let me know the outcome,  but I did notice the ponies had gone a few days later.

The ones I saw yesterday were on a farm,   not dumped by gypos.   It still looked very wrong though,  they didn't even have one of those cool coats on that some wear.
Again, I couldn't tell about water as its not always easy to find a stopping place when driving, and it might not have been a good idea to trespass.

Quote from: CHF on Today at 12:05:33 PMFingers crossed for them both.
Thanks CHF.     They are both home now, and with just a couple of stitches each.   I thought they were the dissolving stitches, but they are not,  so they'll need to go back in about 10 days to have them removed.
So good to have them home again.   :smiley:

Quote from: JBR on Today at 10:50:16 AMI just found a message from Mups asking if I'm OK.
I replied to the message, of course, but both hers and mine are nowhere to be found.
I have no idea what is happening, and have no means of finding where these things are.
If Mups should see this, please understand that I am not ignoring you!
Don't worry JB,  I have received your reply,  and thank you.   :smiley:
