The joy of owning a horse!  When you drive out to meet friends for lunch and you look into the paddock only to realise that your pony has ripped all the straps on its rug, so you have to go  and chase it around the paddock in your good clothes to get it off.  This then makes you late and smell like horse.  Then driving home it starts to poor down with rain and the temperature drops 5 degrees so you have to quickly go home, get changed and get a different rug to put on your horse, you then chase it around the paddock again getting muddy and wet.  Oh dear.
