washerboy Posted January 19, 2020 Report Share Posted January 19, 2020 Visited a local donkey sanctuary this morning, great work done there. Really enjoyed it. Always fancied resueing one if I ever had the land or finances 😀 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mel b3 Posted January 19, 2020 Report Share Posted January 19, 2020 i have an old mate that was/is very good friends with a right dodgey character . the dodgey character set up a sanctuary that looked after badly treated donkeys . he told my mate that its the best fiddle hes ever had , you just throw a couple of ropey looking old donkeys in a field , put up a donkey sanctuary sign , and folks just throw money at you . i wont name the sanctuary as its still going strong , and has been fleecing people for years , and its the reason that i would never give them a penny.

figgy Posted January 19, 2020 Report Share Posted January 19, 2020 Wife cousin had a donkey on his livery place. Said it was the worst thing ever, bit till off other horses, bit top rails and posts to bits. Was a pain in the rear. Was a bit of pet of a priest so he couldn't say no to him. 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benthejockey Posted January 19, 2020 Report Share Posted January 19, 2020 I knew a dodgy bloke who used to deal in cattle and when the bottom fell out of it which was around the time coloured horses were work decent money. He swapped from bovine to equines. Anyway he used to end up being given donkeys as luck money. He'd get to about 20 or 30 and then they'd disappear. I asked him one day where they went. His reply was "I have a mate in Spain who takes them all. As many as I've got. You don't eat salami do you? I'd not eat X brand if you do." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

figgy Posted January 21, 2020 Report Share Posted January 21, 2020 Bit of Quixote salami sounds tasty. Better they get eaten than wasted or abused. Not many Donkey Wallpapers about anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
