Never look a gift horse in the mouth!

The next time someone offers you something, with the intention of that something doing you some good, keep your mouth firmly shut! Life’s experience has taught me this is a rule worth sticking to.

Two-legs came to collect me today, promising  me something tasty and she said that it would do me some good.  "Fair enough." says I to myself…"Lead the way McDuff!" (Actually she does descend from the Clan McDuff! Funny thing that).  Anyways, we got to my stable and in I goes for a bucket of my tasty delights only to find my bucket bare.  In the name of Pegasus! What confounded  sub-diffusion was this? No grub in my bucket, after all that slathering (slobbering) I was doing at the thought of it! Humph!

The next thing I know, before I could get over the sight of the empty bucket, was a mouthful of worming cream! That stuff is the foulest thing ever to go in an equine’s mouth, and all she could do was laugh at the effrontery of it all. How and ever she did indeed present me with my bucket of pony nuts, which prevented me from kicking her into next week.

Clouds and worming treatments do indeed have a silver lining x
