Cumbria Here I Come

By marpaul

Blipbear goes horse riding .....

.....well that's not strictly true more of a slow walk on a dog! Anyhow, after hearing my neighbour's donkey braying last night decided he wanted to ride a donkey! Nothing surprises me any more.... I had to explain that it was out of the question as this particular donkey doesn't like polar bears following a mishap last year. Too long a story to repeat here but I believe carrots were involved.

So then he spotted Bonnie and asked if he could have a ride on her instead of the donkey which actually was a much better option as she's a lot smaller so he wouldn't have far to fall if she took off with him. We did have to talk Bonnie around though and she was not convinced 100% but the promise of a special biscuit afterwards won her around. So here we are on the marsh just as the snow started and you can see some flakes on Bonnie's head. Blipbear enjoyed this new experience and I'm sure he would have liked a bit more speed but of course she's an old lady so could only go slow but he still enjoyed it all the same and Bonnie got her special biscuit and said she'd be happy to do it again but for two biscuits next time!

Incidentally that bored look on Bonnie is what I get every time I point the camera at her and a ball in the hand usually does the trick, but today it was snowing and I wanted to put the camera away quickly
