FREE GRASS CUTTING SERVICE

Nip down to the riverside, just off Lidl's car park, to see a bit of private enterprise grass cutting being undertaken at no cost to the Environment Agency or the local authority. A couple of piebald horses have been taken there to graze happily on a stretch of fresh green grass. I can't see any problem with grazing a couple of horses there on a very quiet Sunday, especially as there seems to be a man with them, although we only got a quick look while driving over Ancholme Way bridge.
But in today's era of health and safety there always seems to be some regulation or other to be taken into consideration on most issues. Hopefully the powers-that-be have yet to include a clause about Easter Sunday horse grazing on the banks of the Ancholme. But don't count on it!

It won't be long before someone rushes out with a coal shovel claiming the horse muck for their roses.
