The Truth
During the Myerscough Premier league , I was seated between two BD list one judges, watching the Mrs P GP test .
The test clearly did not go according to plan , the Mrs P plan . The only way to describe the joint performance of horse and rider is that Brexit is a much tidier and harmonious affair from what we have witnessed in the arena during the GP test .
“SO WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO TELL HER NOW!! ?†one of the judges asked me .
“As her husband or her trainer ?†I inquired .
“HUSBAND of course “ she replied .
To which I replied “As her Husband it will be anything but the TRUTHâ€.
The second judge joined the conversation “ and as her trainer ?â€
“Obviously ! nothing but the truth “ was my instinctive response.
The first judge continued “and if she was a paying student ?â€
To which my very instinctive reply was “Any thing ! anything !! BUT the truth “.
