Loos
Nicer loos for the Nationals Pavilion please..
Senior Trainer and Junior Trainer were having lunch in the pavilion with the other VIPs and CLEBS when Junior Trainer said to Senior Trainer “ I need the loo badly “
“That's not a problem the loos are just out side on the right” Senior Trainer told him.
“I cant use the public loos, you don't know who was there before you and the seats are all plastic, loos are like dressage saddles it not just any loo will do” Junior replied.
“In that case son come with me and I will teach how to deal with this kind of predicament” Senior trainer said as he stepped out of the pavilion marching towards the biggest, poshest most expensive horse box on display at the national championship.
“So this is a 350k horse box” he addressed the man polishing the glitzy shiny front bumper of this palace on wheels, “Yes it is “ the man replied “but this is only the economy version”
“So what do we get for all this money” Senior Trainer asked in his most upper class dis interested voice.
There is not enough space or time to repeat all the sale shpiel supplied by the horse box dealer,but in a sentence, apart from flying to the moon vertically every thing else is included.
Senior trainer was still having his unimpressed look “ what about the living quarters is that up to GP dressage standard ?”
“Sir the living area of our horseboxes were designed and built by the same team employed by her majesty the queen when Windsor castle was refurbished after the fire ” the horsebox dealer emphasised in a loud voice “it has a separate bathroom with hers and his washing basin , separate loo cubical with brass door knobs and automatic flush”.
Senior Trainer’s facial expression started to lighten on the mention of loos and flushes and he turned to the horsebox salesman “Separate cubical with automatic flush what is that?”
“Well you see Sir” the salesman continued “ the loos in our horseboxes are so special that apart from personal motions the other activities like flushing and the brushing all done with the aid of automatic sensors no human interaction”
Senior trainer looked at the salesman “so it is all separately automatic “ “yes Sir “ salesman assured him
“no human intervention” “NO Sir”
“So in this case you don't mind if my mate here will use your loo he is dying for a C,,,,P and he hates the public loos” Senior Trainer finished.
