eew who would want a fewsty old chestnut in their pockets

[elise]

heh i guess the horses would! heh. i dunno how well that would work for most the horses i've been in contact with. i don't think they've ever had a chestnut. heck i don't even know if they grow around here.

[stephydoo]

its not chestnut as in the thing that grows on trees
its the chestnut on the horse ie the scabby looking bit thats below the knee and the hock

[stephydoo]
