A jungle ride

On Saturday, as Mark was away in Chicago for work, Liz and I went to the Mount Mascal stables out in Bexley for a horse ride. It was great fun, my pony was called Jungle and she was absolutely lovely,  very laid back and easy to ride. Liz also had a really nice horse called Trouper, and it was a beautiful day for a gentle plod around the woods.

We also stopped in at the 99p store, as it’s always fun. I was childishly amused by the kids’ drink called Boobee, however, my taking a picture of it prompted the security  guard to get rather annoyed – the conversation went something like this…

‘No, you can’t do that, why are you taking a picture?’ ‘because it’s funny, it’s got a funny name’ ‘would you do that in Tesco?’ ‘Yes, if something had a funny name’ ‘Why is it funny, what’s funny about… Boobies?’ (at this point Liz and I just walked away in fits of giggles)

It must be quite a dull job being a security guard in a 99p store, but that’s no excuse for not having a sense of humour!
