By the time I came home from work I was thoroughly exhausted
and decided to rather longe the boys than ride. Saumur is very good on the
longe line, I only use a cavasson (no bit, surcingle etc). Saumur started out
nice and relaxed. All of a sudden he went down, grinding himself into the sand,
rolling over and over, loudly groaning. Just as some people came by – of course
they wanted to know what was wrong with the “poor horse”, that looked like it
was in agony.
Well … absolutely nothing. It wasn’t agony – it was ecstasy!
Saumur simply had decided it was time for a good roll, one of his favorite
things to do (never mind he didn’t need to wait to be on the longe line, he had
all day in the pasture to do that).
So going back to the song: Translated it means “You have to
have a little fun”!
