    Ah lads, I'm all sad here with thoughts about others. My life isn't perfect at all, but jaysus, I just got an email about today's job in Dublin. Do these **** ever sleep??? The email was sent to me by mistake and meant for someone else. My heart is going out to the poor fecker who it's directed at. If I was in my 20s/early 30s with the talent some of these guys have, I'd be on a plane out of the place. Run like fook!

    In my world, it's a night cap and grub.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 587 ✭✭✭Redneck Reject


    You whipped a person? Wha?

    It is hard to stand there watching an owner literally beating a horse for failing in a hunt due to mostly a over confidante owner. The horse did his job to the best of his master's ability. Since his owners ability wasn't up to par, he instead decided to beat the horse in a corner with no escape.

    So yes I took the whip from him and proceeded to flog him to teach him a lesson. When a horse fails to perform, it is a rider's issue. Not the horses.

    I can only imagine. Seeing such a sight would anger me and my heart would break for the poor horse. I am not a violent person and believe that one hurt doesn't always justify another. So while I certainly wouldn't stand idly by nor would I react with violence.

    However it was a situation you were in, not I. It just made me think is all.

    I understand your position, but mine might seem a bit hard core, I always have a love of horses and in part they have helped in dealing with my PTSD.A horse has a fight or flight mentality. Most times they choose flight from an aggressive situation.
    So if taking a whip to an owner was abusing a horse for failing in a hunt a bad thing, I'll take it.

    It's an article about a man named Joe Slattery who works with horses in a therapeutic manner to help people. Marian Finucane interviewed him a few months back and I think he's amazing.

    It was literally an email to another colleague and not meant for me at all. Still easy :Dto do these days when you work in a little group. Just an arsehole not recognising names/email addresses.

    Gonna slide that can of beer back to you. Time for bed. Keep it till the weekend begins at 6pm tomorrow.

    Happy birthdays to you both.


    Back from the shopping and all packed away. Home alone for the morning, so coffee brewing and book ready. I can't decide if I'll sit in the garden or not. The forecast says rain but the sun's peeping out...the garden it is so.

    I'll have a few extra biscuits to mark the birthdays.

    My cat or dog has thrown up a very small frog. You can tell it was regurgitated but I didn't see it happen. First the cat left a magpie, then eight pygmy shrews arranged in a square formation and now a froglet on the kitchen floor. Stranger things happen at sea?
