Our yard is quite close to the HS2 route, in fact it cuts across one of our hacking routes, they have already chopped down thousands of trees and closed off a lot of our riding fields, ok I get that, we hack past their site at least once a week and we often stop for a chat, the guys on site are lovely and will stop their machinery (massive earth moving equipment) if Belle gets scared when they are working next to the road and are always polite.
We have a lovely Ford we ride through near the entrance to the HS2 site, I found out tonight that the protesters have been down there today and thrown nails and screws into the ford so that you can’t see them! Apparently they think it’s funny because the HS2 chaps are now getting punctures, what about my horses hooves, or the children who play in the water, or the dogs who walk through it, I’m furious beyond belief, if I see the protesters they will be having their nails shoved as far up their backsides as my hands will go!
