It depends whose riding. Some of them can move about - just to keep you wondering.

Bits os the saddle and bridle then?

I think the bit's in the mouth

You could be right.

Or... is it in the drill?
*paces worriedly*
Horses and drills could be dangerouser

Horses with drills sounds rather scary... Perhaps some kind of evil plot to unscrew things and put the human race in a vulnerable position for taking over

Now there's an interesting point. We screw things up and the horses unscrew them.

Thats very clever!

So does that mean that a horse takeover wouldn't be a bad thing? ...If they unscrew the things we screwed up...

Though if they unscrew things like chairs so we end up injured or worse.....then they could have an easy victory........*checks screws on chair*

Good point! And think of all the things that are screwed to the ceiling!!!! Fans, projectors, lights.... They could fall on you if they were unscrewed!

*passes round the yellow hard hats* Just incase......

*puts hers on*
Thanks! I feel much more prepared now!!!

Don't want any light fittings falling on anyone's head. Could be dangerous.

And then there's horse flies. they can give you a nasty bite.

Do they really? I've never seen one. For some reason I always thought they were just like house flies but maybe a little bigger. Does it hurt much if you get bitten?

They're horrible wee things....

I'll be sure to steer clear of them. No going to Manitoba then, I hear they have alot of them in the summer.

I'm sure they're in more places than you think.

Ewww.... Probably....
Nowhere is safe!!!

Doubt they're in the arctic though.....
