What's The Best Fly Blanket For A Pony?

[jordanbasset]

A Pony = 25 quid, but why would Lakey want a blanket for a fly?

Perhaps it gets cold at night in the Lakes

There's something here called a "whores blanket". Can that be what Lakey's looking for? http://cheezburger.com/5400763136

That is class!

That is class!

That's it. Boats on the market and I'm off to be the back legs.

You guys take the phrase "Grooming" to a new, nefarious low.

Didn't Catherine the Great have a bit of a reputation for hoarse yells?

Then it is pointless.... Chavs!

There, Lakey, I've fixed your minor finger-trouble for you.

Doan' mention it.

Now I get it.

He wants to keep his tackle cosy.

Maybe if he asked for Willy Warmer recommendations it would have been less confusing.

I was hoping 'pony ' was in the sense Americans refer to Mustang cars as pony cars ( saw a new one today, it's the Goodwood Festival Of Traffic preventing decent folk getting to their boats and intelligent pursuits ) - so a Mustang Yachts racing job in need of TLC ?

I was too polite.

Eh? What are you talking about, Lakey?

He means this:

 

[Lakesailor]

You bastard

Get shot of the pony and buy an ordinary blanket.

Actually, whether Lakey knew it or not, there is a nautical slant to this subject.

On our boat, the vestigial piece of acrylic canvas that goes over the front of the stackpack and does up around the mast, is known as "the horse blanket". As in, "I'll lock the washboards, could you check the gas bottle is off and put the horse blanket on, please."

"Sail cover" is ambiguous, as it could refer to zipping up the top of the stackpack, but as you throw the horse blanket over the boom's back, do up the girths underneath, then button it up the chest and around the neck, it becomes obvious that the name fits it well. These days it is never referred to by any other term.

I knew it reminded me of something. From now on I will adopt the same, excellent.

Bugger. It all has been for nothing.
