<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nThen there was my walk yesterday. Now I always go on the same walk. It\u2019s not just that I am a creature of habit but the ground is softer on my legs and I like it. We set off yesterday my Mistress and I and got a bit of a surprise. We were expecting mud but we weren\u2019t expecting horses. There they were as bold as anything standing in the middle of my footpath. I worked on the basis that they were much bigger than me and there were three of them and said to our Mistress would<\/p>\n\n\n\n
she mind awfully if we went the other way. The problem with that was that it meant going on tarmac for the first part and my legs were hurting a little by the end of it. Then we went around the field the other way and only got part way before I looked at the puddle and said \u2018You\u2019ve got to be kidding!\u2019 Now I know my legs are waterproof all the way up, but there really is no need to put that to the test on a routine basis. She had walking boots on rather than wellington boots so could see my point. I\u2019m hoping the horses are only there as their usual place is waterlogged and that they will go back soon. Otherwise I\u2019m going to have to rethink the whole walk strategy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
