The Promise to Neigh at Every Horse Statue

Have you ever found yourself alone in a park, it’s freezing cold, the sun setting, and you stumble upon one of the world’s largest horse statues? How wonderful!

I also fancy horses, and the sounds they make, as I have never heard a horse make the neigh whinny noise without having to do it back immediately at full voice, and then needing to run for my life as it thinks either I’m picking a fight or might be it’s new girlfriend… So, I was delighted that all of these factors came together for me to laugh my head off, alone in an outdoor statue park, as I filmed angle after angle, enjoying this special moment with the horse and my neigh whinny at full bore.
