Donkey Derby!

FURRY FRIDAY ON SATURDAY!

Yes! The sharp-eyed amongst you will notice these pixx are conflated from several derby days of the donkey kind...

DONKEYS ARE SOME OF MY FAVOURITE ANIMALS. AREN'T THEY FURRY AND CUTE!!

Chomping at the bit (hardly!)... the furry donkeys cannot wait to race!



All the Trotter Donkeys in a row...



And off they ping!
(Reluctantly...)



... trotting away...!



Oh no! A wicked witch has cast a spell on the children!



The race took so long, the children who got on the donkeys aged 6 and 7 passed 13 years before the race finished!...



Giddy up now!



The lucky winner!



1. A little more sedate than the Kentucky Derby (this does have moving pictures after a brief photomontage)... or the Grand National (as featured in National Velvet) for that matter... a GENUINE DONKEY DERBY!



2. Aww! Look at all the furry donkeys...



3. Here's a one-girl donkey derby in Sweden or somewhere... What beautiful countryside!

  1. Can anyone recommend the well-priced Remote Management tool for a small IT service company like mine? Does anyone use Kaseya.com or GFI.com? How do they compare to these guys I found recently: N-able N-central performance management
    ? What is your best take in cost vs performance among those three? I need a good advice please... Thanks in advance!

  3. Donkeys are such cute animals and also very appreciate in North Africa, unfortunately not every owner treats them well.
    You ask why I look always happy on pictures ? That's very easy. Usually you smile when somebody takes a picture of you so automatically you look happy even if you are not. Only on when you have to pose for passport pictures, smiling is not allowed anymore and we all look like terrorists !

  4. Looks like you are getting hit up by anony spammers Gledwood.

    Trotter donkey derbies? Can't say I've seen one here in the States, but I suspect they do exist here. If one can ride an ass, then one can surely race an ass. Seems pretty universal. Just don't expect the ass to be enthusiastic about the whole affair.

  6. Hi Gled,

    We may have donkey derby here, but I'm not really sure. But at my daughter school they had donkey basket ball.

    My daughter said it was fun, but she didn't get to do it just the teachers.
