catgate Posted May 24, 2007 Report Share Posted May 24, 2007 Where are the stables Catgate?. :DGypsy's don't put horses in stables. :DWe had a family of them (Ma, Pa and 2 girls) living on the grass verge about half a mile away from us (in 2 old vardos .....hooped living cart) for about three months earlier in the year. They were no trouble, but their horses were. They had about 20, and they were always tethered in a manner as shown. So that they could eat right to the edge of the wide grass verges. This meant that they could stand in the road. The police kept calling and getting them moved, but did it make any difference???? Answers on the back of a signed blank cheque to the usual address.

-pops- Posted May 24, 2007 Report Share Posted May 24, 2007 I live in a tiny village just outside of click here.Wiki entry click here.Although Haslemere is in Surrey, the village where I live is in Sussex and just down the road is Hampshire at the confluence of two streams which start the river Wey. Here you can stand with one foot in Surrey, one foot in Sussex and pee into Hampshire - well, men can. You can, of course change direction and stand in any combination of two of the counties you wish to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very nichedid like the seat though ...didnt try it ..! heh ... pineapples and panties .... And a stop off along the way fer a spot of salmonella and prawns at Tubbys'When I was a student back in the early 80's ......used to stop off at Tubbys in Algate for a light lunch of bagels and tubbys prawns with chilli vinegar (Its that pop bottle full of chillies on the left hand side ,hell who knows ...might even be the same one I used quater of a centuary ago , just topped off now and again ...!) ,followed by a pint or two of heavy at the union ...Then try not to fart during the afternoon lectures , geochem used to be so much fun in the labs ...! heh ..takes me back a bit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
