It all happens here in Dorset: http://www.bournemout..._tried_to_eat_my_hat/

55 and she calls herself a "tough OLD bird"

Has a horse ever tried to eat your hat and was it terrifying?

[madmaggot]

Nah, had one bite my bum though; now that hurt!

Notices up to warn people of horses, terror etc.. what a stupid woman!

[NOX]

Oh God, my life could be worse I could be married to her... what an inane woman.

[jno]

if I dressed a\s food, what would I expect...

[bibblebub]

nay, nay

[Prudie]

I saw that too bibble, ridiculous fuss about nothing to shock the echo readers imo!

[jno]

Nox, you're not going out into the fields with that carrot on your nose...

[NOX]

LMFAO jno

It's a shame that Lord Digby was "unavailable for comment" - would love to have heard his verdict on the stupid woman.

I once got frightened when a strange dog barked at me - but didn't consider the even to be worthy of a newspaper article.

Bah - must be a story planted by the government to cover some dodgy dealings.

I'd have punched it up the bracket if it had had a go at mine..........

[Answerprancer]

LOL...dodgy dealings in Cerne Abbas. I hope this doesn't mean they're going to put underwear on the giant !

Some regional newspapers have some ridiculous stories due to lack of news. Back home in N Devon the front page story one time was that some woman`s dog had savaged a bush in the local park. Not only that but - shock horror - it had done it before!

[jaydah]

That makes me mad! Poor horse gets blame for her stupidity. It's winter & grazers are hungry - keep away from them if you dont understand their habits.

[B00]

I particularly like how that horse is looking at her as if to say "yeah, and if you come closer, i'll eat that dog too"

[wolf63]

237SJ - did you mean to say a 'bush'? Even Perth is more exciting than that.

[237SJ]

Yes, I did.

[bibblebub]

there's no bush but there is a beevor field in this story

Me and hubby used to go and feed a couple of horses near where live. We took a
couple of apples as treats for the horses and a couple of bananas for ourselves in
case we got hungry. But one of the said horses was not satisfied with just an apple
and wanted our bananas as well, we quickly dropped the bananas and left the field
rather quickly as the horse started to become agitated. We have never clambered over a fence so quick in our lives! The greedy thing ate the banana skins as well, yuk!

If a horse thinks you have food it will try and eat it. And if you feed it something it will look for more. One of my horses once ate my ham sandwich as I was holding it somewhere near her. Nothing terrifying about it - normally a slap on the nose will make them back off.
