I don't love the room, but I do love the guest!

This reminds me of a time when I was piddling in the kitchen. Turned around to find our small black horse behind me. I'd left a gate open. It was tricky turning her and getting her across the slick floor and out the door.

This paint pony adds a lot to the decor.

@Kachina624 I used to breed 16-17 hands high horses in U.K. and lived in a very low ceilinged 500 y.o. cottage - kitchen leading out to fields - there in half open door was my huge ‘BigDolly’ horse trying to get in quite a sight!

The colours in this kitchen remind me of that kitchen - do not like these ‘delicate’ looking chairs though but nice place to eat breakfast with right size horse.

Nice, but the chairs have to go. Dining chairs MUST be COMFORTABLE!

It's very pretty but I'd need much more comfortable chairs and I don't get why the tablecloth puddles the floor. I'm pretty accident prone and that just screams that somebody (probably me) is going to trip on it and injure themselves. I'd also probably pull everything on the table to the floor at the same time.

Although the table covering is too long for a clumsy person like myself, I certainly would enjoy having a seat at this dining area and enjoy the company of the other shown guest.

Thanks for the invite.

@dulwich Do you ever watch "Escape to the Country" on Dabl TV? I watch it for 2 hours every day. It's like House Hunters on steroids with people looking for homes in the English countryside. It's on antenna TV. I didn't realize GB was so beautiful before this program.

My dad brought a pony much like that one through the den and into the kitchen up behind my mother one time. He said "You've got company!"

She looked around and said "You get that horse out of this house right now!" Dad and I thought it was wonderful! She did not.

The horse was so sweet and good, I've wondered if he had been in on a trial run when nobody was home. I suspect that was the case. The horse was way too calm about the whole thing.

Dad and I were wild about horses; mother hated them.

@jubilant

What a beautiful sight on this day, Thank you.

@dulwich

Always enjoy your comments about your home. I've been fortunate to spend a good bit of time there, including 3 narrow boat trips; good to hear thoughts from a native.

Agree, that is a pretty space and I think the dinner guest is lovely as well.

Jubilant,

You sure put a smile on my face today. And I say, forget the chairs, I'll sit on the horse and share my breakfast.

@dulwich I can understand how that could happen.

I would prefer a different table and chairs but like the rest of the room and the guest would be welcome!!!!

This looks like my cottage, minus the horse! Love the beachy look!

I love this; I would like to sit there and have a coffee and a croissant and an apple for the visitor!
