This is a true tale - which is why I found it hilarious.

Libby's sister (who I don't get on with) collects horse brasses and has them hanging round one of her fireplaces.  Libby and I were browsing an Antique shop last Saturday and Libby bought her sister a lucky horse shoe to add to her collection.

Her sister came over for dinner this evening and had her thumb all bandaged. It transpired she hit it with a hammer while hanging up the lucky horse shoe. I cracked up when she told us.

Don't forget the left handed screwdriver. She looks like a prime candidate for the can of striped paint and the long weight as well.

Don't shout too loud - you'll only get hoarse.

I don't get on with my S.I.L but at least it's a long-standing stable relationship but I must confess I have to rein in my temper sometimes when she starts cantering on about things. I usually trot out a sarcastic comment to shut her up. She will then usually shy away.

You are in a stable relationship without blinkers but when you are visiting the sil and a furlong from home you could pull up  with the lame excuse that you don't want to trotts into her stall.

Don't encourage them, Dave. I've herd a whisperer that they'll bite the hand that feeds them. Are you reverting to pommie by any chance? That's OK, you're still a palomino...'ld boy.

Don't saddle me with that, Gonz.
You'll only stirrup all the others and open the gait and they'll all be jockeying for position from all quarters.
Then you'll have to horsewhip them into action and spur them on. You know that.
Give me bit of a hand. Or ten.
