Horse Training Success

How many apples does a horse have to eat to get drunk? Trick question? Not so. They say truth is stranger than fiction and here's some proof. The pony below ate so many apples (we don't know how many but it's not the first time he's managed it apparently!) that were on the ground in his field that he became drunk on their fermentation.

So drunk, and stumbling about in the dark, he did what every self respecting drunk does, and fell over. Into someone's backyard pool!!!



"When I looked outside I saw this massive animal in the dark and I thought the Beast of Bodmin moor was in the pool," Miss Penhaligon said.

"I was terrified, but when I took a closer look I realised it was a horse.

"I didn't have a clue what to do next - who do you call when there's a horse stuck in your swimming pool?"
