Now they just have to teach the horse to read.

 

[old man emu]

Dunno about horse being able to read, but they soon learn sign language.

The old horses either did read , or memorise the road signs.  As they walked to the corner , then stop at the " stop " sign .  The driver would walk past then wait for the horse-cart to catch up ,( while chattingto his customer ) .

Bread milk coal & tinker . 

People would rush out to ' pick up' the horse shit for the garden .

We didn't have any garden .

In many very old photos you will see a sign which says Walk Around Corners. This was to tell horses or horse drawn vehicles not to trot, canter or gallop. The offence for doing so was Furious Driving.

Still going, and is the most boring thing to listen to on earth (IMHO).

 

If you want, I am sure you can get it on a streaming service.

Did you mean "screaming" instead of "streaming"?

If nomad's post confuses you, I had double posted the theme to Blue Hills here and in another thread. I deleted my post from this thread, but nomad had posted his before I deleted mine.
