Had a run down to Marchwood naval base to see my dad this weekend and we had a trip out to the New Forest
I knew that the ponies there just roamed free - but we pulled into a classic car garage for a look and they were just wandering around everywhere!!
Didn't get out of 3rd gear, keeping an eye out for them - they were beautiful to see tho

 

How cool is that!

I love stuff like that

 

here here

 

oldskool

 

Its mad isnt it, I was down there today and saw a load of pigs just running down the road, they turn them out every year about this time to let them eat the acorns. Hell knows how they find them all again..

 

better than speed cameras i supose

 

wonder what insurance is like there though

are there other places like this then about

 

Looks a lovely surrounding area.

 

ponies and poo everywhere!

 

just down the road from me... i go past there a couple of times a week, its not the horses that are a pain, its the old people & holiday makers in the summer

 

I think it's great they haven't been penned in and are still allowed to wander as they have done for centuries - even tho things have changed a lot

 

i guess i'm used to it, nice place to live (im in lymington), the forest is all around and the sea is just down the road as well

 

yes, we went to lymington for lunch
Is beautiful all around there

Do the ponies ever do any damage to stuff??

 

no... they are fine if you leave them alone! its when holiday makers try and feed them that things start getting dodgy

they bite and kick if you upset them! pmsl

 

Did you go to Lyndhurst and have a look around the Ferrari/Maserati dealership - I can't help but stop in there each time I've gone to the New Forest!

 

I'd be fucked around there then!! I am allergic to horses.

Quite cool though. Not good if you didn't know and went hooning round those bends like a ham shanker.

 

Pony Curry!

 

its mad innit!!

those cattle grids are ferocious tho

 

If you like it that much, you should move there

 

Those ponies were a bit intimidating when they got close!! as they travelled round in packs

Yes we did, some guy was just setting off for the first time in his new ferrari - was really proud, bless him
I was more interested in the RS6 avant they had there

Daz, am also allergic to ponies to, as well as cats Used to have one

Rick, not sure about the pony curry

and yes Ballin, those cattlegrids came from no where still had the susp on hard, thought it was gonna shake itself to death

 

I like it, but I can't move there!

 

The Forest of Dean is like that, but with sheep, they everywhere, just all stand at the apex of corners like they wanna die or summat.

They often come into the towns early in the morning, ive seen Sheep asleep in the doorway of a Woolworths more than once before

Snap with the cats thing too. I think it's the hair that gets me. I am also very mildly allergic to dogs, but pretty bad with the horses. Cats are a bit middle of the road.

Horses make me sneeze constantly and my eyes itch badly. Cats make my eyes itch badly and sneeze occasionally. Dogs make my eyes itch slightly and sneeze occasionally. If they lick me, I come out in bad a rash.

 

pmsl friends of mine went to the new forest this wkend and she got kicked woops

 

wonder how many ponies get run over with passers by?

pretty cool tho, i wouldnt trust my horse to roam about tho, or probably more to the point i wouldnt trust people with my roaming horse, but hey i aint got a horse so what the hell

 

Id kick the twat back!

 

Dont start mate.

 

moi?
I'll be good - promise

 

Reckon it's a bit pricey there Kim

same as me
Horses and ponies give me hives to, cats are next worse. Not very allergic to dogs tho

 

Good luck if you did get get kicked by a pony

they can bloody hurt depending where they catch you

when i was younger i got kicked so hard in the knee that i couldnt walk for 2 weeks

 

If they lick what? Your balls? You never said

 

Girl cant even make a comment these days

 

What I do

 

You'd find them a pain in the neck if you lived there all the time, luckily I don't have to see them much anymore, guess it's all a novelty to you lot!

 

You know what I meant...

 

You scratch my rash, I'll scratch yours!

 

Scratching makes it worse

 

I know! I was joking!!

 

lick it maybe
