Default OTish? Horse s**t. (Leading on from cat crap)

The village I live in has a Parish Council who get bees in their
bonnets from time to time. A recent one was about dog crap, ie that
people should clear up after their dog. Which is fair enough, though
some of the hoity-toity hate the idea, especially if their hounds
start crapping in front of an audience. Everybody knows WHO DUN IT and
is waiting to watch for the indignity of them having to pick it up.
Great.
Their dogs are always called Barny, Archie or Rufus or some such. The
lowlifers' dogs are called Sam or other low class name.

I think I'll put the idea forward that the same should apply to horse
owners. I should love to see the supercilious gits having to get down
and shovel it up. They'd have to carry a shovel with them too. Heh!
Heh!

Many of the hoitys have horses and dogs but don't like their dogs
crapping in the horse paddock. Is there a disease?

We have lots of hoity in our village, though I live in the "rough
end" (but not the really lowlife end, which is the council house
estate).
To qualify for the upper end you need to drive a German car and have a
half timbered "cottage". Oh, or a barn conversion.
I have niether.

Abrupt disqualification there, from the game of calling other people
snobs. But thanks for playing.

Bad luck harry. Try a bit harder then.

I dislike your opinion about "snobs" because they have more than you do.
It stinks

Depends how they got their money. I f they worked for it, fine. If
not, they need to perish. There are a lot of people in the latter
category in our society these days.
BTW, can you recognise irony?
Are you a snob?

Harry apart from being an outstanding snob, you are entirely wrong about
human behaviour as far as clearing up dogs mess is concerned. Most decent
folk (NOT hoity toity types as you like to think of them) do carry doggy
bags and pick up their pets' mess, it is usually the scruffy, less polite
types who don't give a damn!!

It is not easy to get the local authority to site dog bins in the first
place.

As far as horses are concerned, it has always puzzled me hwy a horse can
leave so much manure on a road and no-one in authourity seems to be alarmed
at the mess, especially after a lorry or two as driven throught the heap!

but I do wish they would either find a Doggy Bin to put their little 'Doggie
Bag' in or take it home and NOT just chuck it under or in the nearest hedge.
The plastic bag looks unsightly and does not rot down :-((

OP was about horse crap. (The dog crappers should take it home with
them.)
