Paper-girl

Posted by grouser (Ludlow, United Kingdom) on 13 June 2009 in Lifestyle & Culture and Portfolio.

I came across this slightly surreal paper-girl and pony combination on the way back from Caynham Camp. Unfortunately not having my camera ready I missed the earlier shot where the pony was towing the girl at speed. You would think she would at least get it to carry the papers.

lol I was going to say, do my eyes deceive me or is the girl walking a pony, how extraordinary, wow now THAT you don't see everyday! Bravo for the find and I hope you have an occasion to catch her again ;)

Are yes, the pet pony. We often have them around here too, usually connected to a 'trap' driven by the travellers. I wonder if that is why they call our village - Gypsyville.

Such an unexpected moment . . it makes a kind of twisted sense in many ways and yet looks so surreal !

What a cute pony! So tiny! The black and white dog on the right looks like he is making a pretext at defending his turf but seems he's not going to venture too close. ;-)

I agree with K@, what is that other creature on the right? Great moment in time, glad you were able to get your camera.

Now that's enough to make me want to subscribe to having the paper delivered again! Though I suspect I've have to move to get a delivery service as nice as that :)
