This morning I discovered that Barbie has moved her horse to the yard - and that she isn't very good at parking her lorry.
Actually this ugly memorable vehicle is driven by the mother of a teenage girl whose pony lives at the barn.
I've seen her try to park this lorry before - lots of shunting back and forth vaguely following the directions of a "helper" in order eventually to put the trailer very approximately where it is supposed to go.
So I should be grateful that she didn't run into my trailer. Because, based on what I have seen so far, it was not precision that put her lorry this close to my trailer.
Something like that would really piss me off... hubby knows that I don't like my *stuff* being messed with. ARGH!!

Correct me if I'm wrong, but horse lorries are one-piece deals, right? Parking that is like parking a full-size van? HOW CAN YOU NOT PARK THAT? People are idiots!

It annoys me because I have seen her park and it is a very imprecise operation. Multiple moves back and forth, even with someopne 'helping' with directions. But that is a 4 ton van, hardly any more than a big SUV, it cannot be difficult.
