In recent times, one of our favourite local walks with Human Grandad had a starting point he always referred to as "at the donkeys".
Gail and I went along there yesterday to see how the donkeys were faring in HGD's absence.
There they are in the field, but what is that notice on the tree?
Oh deary me, it seems the donkeys are on a diet. I hope they like carrots better than Gail and I do!
PS I so wanted to title this post 'Big Asses' but Gail feared it would attract the wrong sort of internet readership.
We think Big Asses would have been a fantastic title! Seems a plain 'Don't feed the donkeys' isn't sufficient.

ReplyDeleteBOL! Oh Bertie, at least it is pleasing to find well loved animals - all too often we get reports of total deprivation. So glad you are walking in memory and retaining the joyful parts. Hugs and wags, YAM-aunty xx
Oh my that is too funny! Those poor donkeys.

they must be some popular donkeys that are being fed by everyone who passes to get so overweight. Now I have the queen song "big bottom girls" running through my head :)
ReplyDeleteMOL in case the donkeys should ask....yes that picture does make
ReplyDeleteTheir tush look big! Good grief even donkeys are on a diet what is all that about. MOL MOL MOL
ReplyDeleteHugs MAFI your BFFF
The iPad froze we had to write twice
Madi. Not MAFI
ReplyDeleteHmmmm.....We think the restrictions are in order. Not because their (ahem) Rear Ends are so big, but because they look a bit chubby in the midsection. Around here, the quote to dread is "oh dear Gus, your waist has disappeared again" which means my rations get cut! My sympathy to the donkeys

Mom choked on her coffee at Bad Asses. But actually, it's their tummys (dangerous belly fat?) that look a bit overly nourished.
ReplyDeleteWirey love,

If you had titled it BIG ASSES... I (Frankie Furter) would have thought that it was going to be about ERNIE.
ReplyDeleteWHAT? You don't like Carrots? WE love them... maybe Ernie loves them TOO much though.
BOL...Big Asses! So sad for the donkeys...no one likes to be on a diet.

Glad my weight is not announced to the world

OMD, do critters EVERYWHERE have to go on that awful D-word?? It's getting harder and harder to keep a svelte and trim figure.
ReplyDeleteOh that story hit close to home. I have an elderly neighbor who is lonely and now comes down twice a day to give me jerky treats which Lee tells me are making me fat. Treats heavenly treats, he gives me something that Lee never bought for me.
ReplyDeleteThanks for being a friend

Poor donkeys. We hope the diet passes soon and they can get the good treats.
ReplyDeleteNot to fear, no bad perps here, just understand puppers, been there, poor donkeys!
ReplyDeleteThe Mad Scots
Ha, Poor "Big-Ass" Donkeys. It's tough to be on a diet. :(
ReplyDeletePoor donkeys. Apparently, it's fun to feed the donkeys. Hope they are able to lose weight but still get a treat now and then.
ReplyDeleteHa, poor sweet donkeys. Love the pictures of them.
ReplyDeleteBertie,
ReplyDeleteI think this is very unfair! Poor donkeys, they'll be so confused as to why they're only getting one apple! Makes you wonder how many people were feeding them before!
Yes, I agree with Gail - your audience could have become rather interesting if you'd picked that title!
