The Horse Barn is a favorite spot for fairgoers. Different breeds of horses and the shows with skillful riders of all ages are some of the attractions. This year while walking through the building and peeking into the stalls, I saw this array of colourful ribbons but was stopped in my tracks by the sign with it. It never occurred to me before that a simple gesture of touching a horse's face and going from one animal to another could be harmful. Now I know...did you?
non je ne savais pas, juste qu'il fallait être très doux avec les chevaux si on veut pas être mordu
ReplyDeleteno I did not know, just that it was necessary to be very soft with the horses if they want not to be bitten
no,i didn't. although it does make sense when i stop to think about it.
ReplyDeleteNext thing you know, they will be putting seatbelts on saddles.
ReplyDeleteWell done for reaching three years Kate, it was good to hear from you, how did you like the look of my new place?
ReplyDeleteI'm enjoying these country fair pictures we often have similar events in the countryside a few miles from South Shields.
This is a blow to the concept of the fair itself, I believe it's true but it's a real pity.
ReplyDeleteoh.. i did not know that too!
ReplyDeleteis it because we might pass germs to them?
Award winning! Great colours!
ReplyDeleteI didn't know that either but in humans germs are spread by touching our eyes and nose so I guess it just makes sense.
ReplyDeleteLove the array of bright ribbons!
