Optimistic Cro!
The difference between an optimist and a pessimist, is that the optimist enjoys himself whilst waiting for the inevitable! I AM that optimist!
This is a daily, optimistic, 'photos and comments' blog. I make no judgements (only occasionally), just notes. If you wish to comment in any way at all, please feel free. Everything and everyone (except the obdurate and dictatorial) is very welcome.
I was born just south of London, but for the past 50 years I've lived in S W France. I am a painter by profession, and writer by desire. Lady Magnon and I live between an ancient cottage in a tiny village in perfectly tranquil French countryside, and a bijou townhouse in Brighton UK. In France we have plenty of fruit trees, all situated amongst a view that takes the breath away, in the UK we have a handkerchief sized patio. We also have a Border Collie called Billy. I try to treat our planet with respect, and encourage others to do likewise (without preaching).
Contentment is a glass of red, a plate of charcuterie, and a slice of good country bread. Perfect!
The equine equivalent to not eating one's crusts! Would it help to warn him that his hair won't be curly is he doesn't eat the outside bits as well?
ReplyDeleteWould he listen?
DeleteMaybe he's making a shelter. In case it snows again.
ReplyDeleteAn old farmer friend only told me this summer that when hay begins to rot on the inside, all the animals go mad for it - looks like Dobbin does too.
ReplyDeleteRotting hay must be the equivalent of silage which always smells pretty good to me.
ReplyDeleteI love the smell of 'good' young silage. It often reminds me of sweet licorice.
DeletePony Dobbin looks to be the same size and color as my miniature jackass Doolin. Long lost brothers perhaps.
ReplyDeleteIf the hay is rotting, could it also be fermenting? Is he really just catching a buzz?! LOL
ReplyDeleteThe perfect blog--witty, short and immensely fun!
ReplyDeleteIt looks a bit like a hobbit hole.
ReplyDeleteI see this quite often up the road. Love this post!!
