I love horses, and they seem to be quite fond of each other too
My aunt owns a riding stables and we used to visit about once a month for a catch up, a shetland pony ride and general messing about in her woods (not a euphamism).

There was lots of excitement on the yard once when we were there. One of the yard staff was leading George the stallion towards a paddock with a mare in it. For some reason unbeknownst to my young self he appeared to be sprouting an extra leg that was swinging in the breeze and was making lots of strange noises that sounded like Scooby Doo laughing.

Someone shouted, "He's a bit useless, it's going to take 5 of us to get it done." One person was holding the headcollar on the mare, then when they opened the gate I looked on as he tried to get a piggy back on her. It took two yard hands either side to stop him falling off, one to keep shoving him in the butt for encouragement, and another person to guide his new leg into the other horse's bum bum and hold it in there.

The lady holding the mare shouted "has he gone yet?" , this was met with a shout back of "Yeah, he's done it!!" from the quintapedal support man who until now had been squeezing the fifth leg and had been waiting for something to happen like a safecracker tumbling locks.

A horsie type, who looked like a female pop-eye, turned to me and said, "Just like a peep show innit?". Being 6 I had no idea what I had just witnessed, but I thought it'd be rude not to agree.

I've never seen a real peep show so if someone could confirm that yes a peep show consists of 5 people helping a stallion with no sense of balance blow his load into a bemused bay horse, I'd really appreciate it.

Yes, it does.

Neigh
That's pretty much the gist of it.

Some people pay good money for that. Just don't mention it to Kenneth Pinyan.
