Okay, he or she, what's their sport? It's a he and he is a horse. Right. Yeah. You met a future Olympian horse. I met a future Olympian horse. And a horse that only just missed out on the Tokyo Games because of the COVID delay. Wait, so if you take a horse to like a Commonwealth or Olympic Games, do they just put them on a plane?

Dude, this blows my mind when I think this about the equestrian at the Olympics. Yeah, they fly them there. Does it have to be a special horse plane? No, it's the DHL cargo plane. The yellow one you see taking off with no windows. Wow. I asked all of these questions. I was a pain in the ass.

What must they be thinking though, horses? Harking back to our do you lie about your occupation phoner that we did this week. They wouldn't bother. They will lie to me next time just to get me away. Oh yeah, to be like, right, we'll never do that again. So how did you meet? This is a slightly long story, but ages ago we were talking about how I was getting free horse poo for the garden or paying for horse poo for the garden,

but it was getting snapped up. Everyone was on the gardening buzz. Everyone was snapping up this horse poo. And a lovely lady called Philippa messaged me saying she drives past a place that often has lots of bags out for free. And so I said, that's wonderful. Oh, please. Tata Smithy. The ears were like ding-a-ling-a-ling.

She said, I said, let me know when you next see some there. Okay. And so she messaged and said, it's there. And I went and got some. And then she messaged me again saying there's more. But by the time I got there, it was gone. And I said to her, oh, it was gone. gone and she said I'll tell you a secret my daughter actually works there so she could probably hook you up oh okay and it's been a while uh and she said oh this

is her um Instagram account messenger yeah and so I messaged Tiffany yeah and I said uh hey this is really weird your mum said to message you about horse poo and she's like yeah she told me she was going to such an Instagram pest day like that honestly that's pesty and then and then it went quiet for a while and then tiffany messaged me at the start of the week saying if you would like to come and get some i have more than i know what to do with at the moment oh okay so i said cool so i went around yesterday and i got there and it was like this like equestrian setup they had nice stables they had like the outside horse shower. They had a horse dryer.

A what? Their horse stands. Like a car wash. Yeah. But a horse wash. But it's like a whole bunch of heat lamps. Oh my God, cute. Yeah, the horse stands underneath it

and they turn it on and it heats them up. Were they all wearing those tight fitting pants? Jogpads. Jogpads. Yeah, jogpads. Did they all look like horses? Horse people look like horses. Like lots of hair, right?

They do. Oh, they had their hair tied up. They've got horses. Lots of hair, right? They do. Oh, they have their hair tied up. They've got it braided the same as the horse. Yeah. And that's the thing, right? And so I was like, oh, this is cool. And Indy was there and she loves horses. So the girl was like, oh, we'll show you the horses.

And we padded this foal. And I was like, oh, this is a nice, this is a cute foal. And she said, it's very expensive, this foal. Right. She didn't put a price tag on it, but its dad is European. Bonjour. Bonjour. Bonjour or bonjourno.

Or actong, baby. And I was like, oh, we got shown around and I was like, oh, and she's like, this guy was supposed to go to the Tokyo Olympics, this horse, but then it got delayed and then he wasn't in the right state to do it. Right. We all got a bit fat and lazy
