Obstacle in field

Although I enjoy walking, the worst thing I can come across, is a horse standing next to a stile and blocking a public footpath

I have to traverse the field as quickly as possible whilst asking any conpanions to keep the animals at bay. I have even been known to rugby tackle people from stiles so I can get out of the field first.

Being on my own this afternoon I just turned round a went home - never even considered crossing the field.
