So sorry you got yelled at 😟 farmers do have trouble with having their crops trampled, but that’s no reason for him to have such a hissy fit! Maybe he’ll wise up and place a proper sign that leads to the correct direction. I have found that since the pandemic, people are more angry than usual. Anybody else observed this side affect?
Yes, the pandemic has affected society in numerous ways, especially seen in a rise in mental health issues. Crime rates are soaring in the US….. random acts of violence, riots, assault and battery, murder, domestic abuse, hate crimes, etc.
Actually, in the US, I think many people had a head start on angry prior to the pandemic. I found myself saying the other day that I was angry at all the angry people! 🙄 Good grief.
@@jamie7253 🤣yep it’s contagious!
I rode the headlands, so no crops were damaged.
You can't blame covid19 for a jerk being a jerk
Glad to see he calmed down, thankfully his wife was there and it was sorted. Well done for keeping your patience. 👍
That is one patient horse. Your anxiety must transfer to him. Yes thankfully his wife was there to calm him down.
Lol his wife told him to shut up. No sorry from grumpy farmer
All you can do is say sorry.
Ah they didn’t seem that bad, they were actually pretty helpful towards the end. Keep calm and carry on!
Key word was “towards the end”. First contact is what sets the scene. The land owner could have handled that quite differently. Honest mistake by the rider.
At least you got him and his rudeness on video...gotcha!
That couple were like chalk and cheese I wonder how many hot headed moments she has had to deal with in her marriage
Wondered the same thing.
He might have been at the end of his tether and you unfortunately were in the wrong spot at the wrong time.
My thoughts exactly. I really understand his frustration and although I think it's unfortunate for Tara to take the brunt of it, it is understandable. Just say sorry, I got lost but I made sure not to walk on the crops and then maybe ask if they can explain to you where you went wrong.
You were properly prepared and handled it well. In explaining the confusion caused by missing signage, you assured him you rode carefully and apologized. The man could have handled the situation in a more civil manner. His wife appeared to be attempting to guide him towards appropriate language and a calmer tone. So sorry this happened to you. Kudos and carrots to Farouk for behaving so well while witnessing a tense situation. He trusts you. 🐴💕💕💕🥕🥕🥕🥕🥕🥕
@@marshamoore8385 Such a huge area of the northwestern US is suffering from the fires! My 85 year old Aunt lives in Arizona which also had fires this year. The air quality has been really bad. Stay safe! Hope conditions improve soon! 💚 A’HO
@@marshamoore8385 Sending prayers to you from Australia 🇦🇺 bushfires are very terrible like what happened to Victoria & New South Wales in Summer 2019. Stay safe😢
Very well said !
@@marshamoore8385 so sorry you are in that fire/smoke zone -- I am in Illinois and all the smoke from out West coming to us as well. Enormous fire red sunsets !.
Stay safe.
God Bless. 💥 💓💓
You handled it so well. Showing the map and of course making your apologies is always good! Very good all around, but so surprising to have people so confrontational.
I know where this is and I am going to take my quad bike and plough those fields up
@@ianarmstrong9594 Yeah that's probably not a wise decision. I understand your frustration, but it doesn't solve anything and is just an asshole move.
@@VibingMeike Exactly.
@@ianarmstrong9594 We know who you are then,
let’s hope you never get hungry !
@@mistyqqq shut it and make me a bacon and egg butty missus
When we see the odd rider accidently on our land, we just leave them be and let them pass. So much land, there's no need to get nasty about it.
Fr unless there riding all over ur crops
I think they’re hiding bodies back there! 😅😂🤣🙃😆🤪🤨🥸
🤣
😂😂😂😂♥️
Maybe his first wife, or third, or whatever? 😂😂😂
@@pennywebb867 😂😂💀💀😂 Good one Penny!!🐴♥️
@@pennywebb867 right?
Tara, you showed more graciousness than that man deserved. How many times could you apologize? I wonder if he realizes that 44,000 people all over the world witnessed his embarrassingly bad behavior. (There is one moment when he glances up towards your helmet camera).
I'm glad she had a camera on & running. That man sounded abusive...it could have escalated into something physical..you just never know. Wanna bet had Tara been a man, the dynamics would've been different...bullying men only attack the weak!!
@@reeritz1280 Yes. Same out with dogs. Its so scary. I am tiny and I have to protect them aswell. And they get fiered up when someone start treating our space. The law says dogs are killed for even attempting anything. Even if they defend me. So I hate meeting abusive men on trails. Women to, but they are at least often physicaly less strong then the men. Even tho they fuck up your day to.
I understand completely why the farmer was upset , it is not on him to make sure you are not on private property it is up to you. Well done for keeping off the crops and flashing their photos all over the internet is not nice, very rude. How would you feel if you had people just wander through your property? He probably thought there would be more horses coming through too and not all are as careful as you with keeping off the crops, horses can carry dirt and mud that may have diseases off other properties too so please make sure you get whoever is in charge of marking trails to get proper signals up.
This is a perfect example of what is wrong in our world today....there is absolutely no willingness to be gracious and understanding....to give another person the benefit of the doubt. People!!!!
Many times..those that trespass on purpose cause serious damage..so puts landowners on edge. Tara..trys to stay on only where allowed. I do wish Tara would stop saying Arabian hirses are spooky..i have been around hundreds that are not.
Oh sweet lady...how unsettling!! You did well.
Well done for standing your ground, keeping to the facts and not letting him shout you down Tara 👏👏
😊
Ha ha I think I would have asked to stand on their truck to remount. Maybe Farouk should have pooped on their land before leaving. 😂🤣
What a silly rude man. You handled that perfectly; very gracious and assertive when you needed to be.
How would you feel if someone you didn’t know rode across your garden if there wasn’t a right of way through it?
That would have been scary, thank goodness the wife came out.
"let the lady speak!"
OMG yes!!
Omg, how rude to call you a liar!! Good Lord, it's not like that happens in his land every day. 😳 geez
What a jerk. But you handled it well. Farouk was super.
If you rode that beautiful horse across my property I would be thrilled! What a beauty.
You did it the right way Tara. Farouk was very well behaved also. A lot of people would have stayed in the saddle. But you did it right. 👍👍
Nice to know.
You were great under pressure! They were really aweful- what a cranky old man!! Good on you!
What a grumpus. Chill, mon. Breathe.
What a jerk!! He sounds like a grumpy old man. What the heck could you have hurt.
Love the sound of saddle leather squeaking. Miss it
What a horrible situation. You were brave and rational. Farouk was amazing. He needs to contact the map office or the problem will continue.
I think the bully farmer enjoyed every minute of it...sounds like it's happen before...yet he has posted no signs on his land...so really, how smart is that farmer-in-the-dell😠
They need to put up a sign not to trespass. Farmers are under unbelievable pressure these days so I can understand why he was upset. Good on you for doing a great job trying to explain.
It's pretty obvious not to go onto a farm field, surely? Unless there's a sign to say bridle path or such, I'd think it's obvious that means it's not accessible to the public.
Silly old man. You were very respectful considering. And I'm sure you damaged nothing. 😎
That man wasn’t very nice.He could handle it differently.Thank goodness his wife was there.Can’t wait to see what happens next.🏇🏼❤️👍
Think both you and Farouk handled the situation very well, 🥕🥕👏💕
Tara, you handled that situation very well. I can't believe how rude he was!! You didn't do it on purpose.
Thanks, Katie Nelson.
He must be fun at parties.
😂😂
Yeah....SCROOGE comes to mind😡
Alot of farmers hate horse riders and also walkers on there land .Glad you stood up to him Tara .🐴👍
Good that you had your map with you, lucky most people are friendly and not as this man, bbrr.
Farouk was very calm waiting, he listened wel and behave like a proud Arabian, that farmer should take a example of him.
Thank goodness his wife was there
What harm were you doing? Honestly some people 🙄 and Farouk bless him was a very good boy! Glad you're both OK 👌x
@@geni2906 hmm think you are related to him if you call that reasonable!
We know who has the power & common sense: wifey💁♀️lol!
Sorry you went thru that.
Love the red ears❣
Both seemed ill-mannered to me! During the depression my granny owned a farm, seldom a day went by w/o a stranger wandering by...she had benches around the shade trees in the front yard & always offered a cold glass of dandelion tea. Manners were all important back then....it held society together during the hard times!
You Handled that very well!
Oh my goodness how scary!! So glad your. Both ok..
Oh Tara I felt for you I've been in a situation similar to that it's not nice. You handled yourself so well. What people need to realise is we mean no harm and there is absolutely no need for the farmer to shout at you. Bless you and little Farouk ❤
He may have had the distressing situation like a neighbour of mine who found his sheep had been ripped to pieces by a walkers dog. Many injured ewes had to be put down. 😢
For him to react in such a way his issues are bound to be much deeper rooted than you and Farouk passing through on his land. Once again you handled yourself beautifully, Tara❣️
🐾🖤💜🧡🌺
We tease our teammate from England also named, Tara, that she could be telling someone off but with her accent she would still sound eloquent! ☺️. She says she has gotten out of traffic tickets and she knows that’s why! You might have been rattled but you sounded so good! And what a good boy, F. was while Mom was being treated poorly! 🐴❤️. Thanks for keeping the camera rolling so we all… the world!!!… could be there!
What a complete plonker he was. You handled it so well and showed what a courteous and civilized apology and explanation should be like. What an oaf - he couldn't even acknowledge the genuine mix up re the lack of obvious and reliable signage at the cottages. Farouk has more brains and better manners than that total cretin. Farouk behaved perfectly - wait till he tells Bella and Apollo all about it - think Bella might have quite a few opinions on the matter !! A glass of wine when you get home....😊😊🤗🤗
What does cretin mean?
I love the word "plonker"- never heard it before but I can gather the meaning. I can't wait to remark to my dh what a plonker he is :) , I like expanding his vocabulary...
@@carolevandermissen8407 A cretin is "a stupid, obtuse, or mentally defective person" (from dictionary). I would say that man was all three...
Listen to him and then walk away without a word.
What a grumpy farmer. Well done for staying calm and explaining. Where i used to ride if a farmers gate was left open we had permission to ride. Obviously helpful knowing the farmer . 🙂
This was really interesting though I am sorry you had to endure his wrath. I live in the US (Arizona) and have moved to a barn which is in the suburbs. We ride through neighborhoods to get to a trail which leads through an expensive group of homes in order to arrive at the wash (dry riverbed/county park). Generally the residents are polite as we ride through but some get annoyed with us. When I watch videos from England I am amazed at the access you have through the fields. We would give anything to have those lovely grassy areas for a good canter.
It was hardly wrath!!! The lady riding keeps interrupting the guy talking. She was passive aggressive, he was totally reasonable
@@geni2906 really? As Tara said you couldn't hear how nasty that guy was at the start of it so that's hardly "totally reasonable" is it!
I also live in the US and would love to go into some of the meadows over here in South Carolina. However, you can’t just start cantering on other people’s property - though sometimes I wish. 😅
@@geni2906 I kinda agree, she makes so many videos with people who are "rude" but like.. She's the common issue..
You were perfectly right Tara there was no indication at any point to show which way to go and not a soul about to ask. You handled the farmer very well so his anger dissipated. Hope you have success with the gate. 🥰
Oh dear at least you held your own Tara.His wife was so sweet which helped the situation. Glad you managed to get back on Farouk he was such a good boy and he sensed you were upset bless him. I’m sure you’ll get through that gate.Enjoy the rest of your ride and breathe easy.tfs😎
It just genuine mistake Tata contact bhsociety put signs route also record and update sorry lost confidence case crops upset him but maybe he should put land private sign had same headland walk Cornwall signs gate similar enter and wasn't was private angry farmer try apologize not fall path steep incline side angry me honest God
What a really lovely good natured person you are! I’m so upset that this happened to you. Honestly what on earth was wrong with the chap? He’s obviously never made a mistake in his life or took a wrong turn.
I wonder if he is perfect and has never made a mistake or gone wrong. What an arse.
😂😊😂 yep
Agree
It is the Council's responsibility to signpost bridleways. Problem is at this time of year that paths get overgrown if not used much.
Sorry that happened to you Tara & Farouk🥕🥕🥕🥕. Least the farmer's wife & you handled the situation better than he did & Farouk staying calm through the whole situation as well. Sending kisses & hugs to you with plenty of flowers to brighten your day.😘🤗💐🌷🌺🌹🌸🌼🌻. Give Farouk carrots 🥕 🥕 🥕🥕 reward for being such a very good boy too.
English are so polite. Even your horse. Such a pleasant slice of life.
Well done for keeping ur cool, after being shouted at x hope u enjoyed the rest of ur ride x
Well, it was a beautiful hack, angry farmer notwithstanding (having an "off" day, was he?)!
Tara what was the man mad about? You were not doing any damage. You were not riding on the crop!
That man didn't need to kick off like he did... Bless that lady she was trying to explain where to go and he was just speaking over her... You are always careful and never go on the crops... I understand that he doesn't want riders on his land but why not have his own sign up... NO BRIDLEWAY ACCESS... Problem sorted...
Yes, I’ve seen plenty of signs like that, where clearly they’re used to getting people going the wrong way, so put up a sign to direct you the right way. His attitude suggested he was a bit fed up perhaps of riders going the wrong way, but as you say a sign would have solved the problem or even a sign positioned that you more clearly see directing you left when you came up the path. I’m not sure what the local bridleways group is like local to Tara, but I’d definitely be contacting them to ask for better signage to be erected 😊
Agree
Tara,you tried your best !!! Fiddle sticks on the grouch!!!hugs Rea
Farouk is really happy riding he really does like it alot pretty HILLS FAROUK IS DOING A GREAT JOB TARA FAROUK IS LISTENING TO YOU REALLY WELL FAROUK IS A GOURGEOUS HORSE
👍
His ears are so cute!
That’s not yelling, it’s so polite compared to here where you’re called every swear under the sun for parking in the wrong spot lol
Wow! really? that's sad, tfs
Poor you Tara there was no need to shout at you it's a good job his wife was there maybe she will get the sign put up properly and tell her husband not to be so rude , well done to you for handling this situation so well.
I used to be a Warden in the Lake District. We decided to walk all the paths and do an audit of signage. Amazing how out of the way some of the signs were; or missing; or downright wrong.
That farmer should have given you a leg up Tara !
he wouldn't have been in a state to give anyone a leg up if I had been there lol
Well, I assume you got home bc you posted this. 🤔😊 And you are correct, there were no visible directions for the bridleway. You handled yourself magnificently. The lady was sweet, the man belligerent. I bet she has smoothed the waters more than once in their marriage! If the gentleman (and I use the term hesistantly) was so upset about people riding through his crops and by his horses, then it behooves him to put up large signs and arrows. I could tell you were flustered, it ruined what had been a pleasant ride. I'm so sorry. ❤ love to all.
Most importantly...there was NO posting anywhere to show you were on "Private Property"..so his upset was nonsensical...POST your properties boundaries if you don't want trespassers!
There's a few farmers fields around where we ride, and we've always talk to them and gotten permission
He was clearly just looking for an argument! Silly man, all he had to do was say you’d made a mistake! Much ado about nothing!!
I think they purposely make the signs obscured in the hope that fewer people will use them. Those farmers are internationally famous now lol. Well done for staying so calm
👍👍👍👍
Oh Tara! What a dreadful man! You explained what happened and there were no signs. You didn’t hurt his fields either.
I’m glad you had it all in video! Wouldn’t he be surprised what the whole world thinks of him!!
How many times do you have to apologize?
Oh my! I hate that it happened to you and sweet Farouk!!
His attitude is abhorrent!
You handled it well! Stay strong!
Much love to you from Pennsylvania in USA!👍😘💕
Way to go Tara. I’m sure the man feels 2 feet high. You held your ground, made your point, kept your cool and minded your manners very well. So tempting to react 🤬 and regret it. No regrets for staying on the high road.😇 Well done and his lovely wife probably gave him more of an earful on the ride home. 😂I was so relieved when you were able to mount and go on your way. 💕
This is the guy who destroys holidays. Imagine if you on vacation here and had to face his toxicity. Happy bloody holiday eh.
We were all along for this ride and saw how confusing it was. (Maybe he would like to watch your post from 2 days ago 😬). That tiny sign was impossible to see. He was looking for an argument and to call you a liar without listening to you was awful. You handled it very well and thank goodness for his wife!
These situations really are upsetting. I gave been in exactly the same position except the farm I was riding through had a couple of very nasty dogs roaming around! Luckily my horse was not to bothered by the dogs but the farmer was far from polite!
I think when there are no signs its just a way of making access more difficult.
Well handled though. You had your map and I think the wife realized you had done everything possible to find the correct route and not trampled crops.
Deep breath and relax. 😌
Whatever damage did that chap think you might have caused? Great that they helped you out in the end, but why be nasty at the start? In the crappy times we are in, just a little bit of kindness goes such a long way. GO TARA !
😊
How upsetting glad you stood your ground.
Rude horrible man ! It wasn't as if you were hacking ( the chopping variety !!) through all the crops & wrecking them.
Some folks should live on their own little planet completely away from decent humans 🙄 !!
I’ll never abide people who’s default is anger and screaming, regardless of their justification. What about, “Are you lost, can I help?” when he clearly knows you are! And will they take any steps to make sure there’s better signage? I’m skeptical. Handled as best could be, Tara. I’m glad his spouse was there so more reasonable communication could occur.
Well said! Jamie! 👍👍👍👍👍👍
Wow you were so apologetic and honest to of made a mistake and you did no harm , really strange for people to over act this way on one rider it’s not like a blood hound club rampaged through the fields! Imagine that the ol fella would have a heart attack! Well done Tara you handle that so well! 👌
"Right/left???. Shout back, you did well..all you can is say..sorry..😁😆👍thanks bye 🐎❤🤗
Only a tiny sign. You'd think he would donate a sign saying"go left" or at least "wrong way" LOL
signs are free from the parks department
You handled that very well Tara, it's not nice when people treat you like that, especially when it was an honest mistake. It's not your fault that there was lack of any decent signs. Good on you though for standing your ground 😘
Can’t understand why he had a problem. You made a little mistake. Not a train smash🥰🥰
If you had a herd of cows that broke out and caused huge stress and worry because of a similar so called little mistake you may understand a little better why a farmer gets angry with strangers riding around their fields when they don’t have rights of way on them…..
Well God bless you both. My Arab could always sense my slightest emotion which made mounting from the ground that much harder. He KNEW I needed to get on from the high ground, and made me work for it. That ride you were on seems desolate, and I wouldn't have wanted to go back nor would I. Stay safe and well you two.
Maybe get an updated copy of the map you used and take both copies to your local council and request that some clearer signage is put in place to avoid future issues.
i feel like alot of people would make that mistake and you said sorry thats all you can do plus if there are no clear signs no one would know what way to go unless you live in the area
I would have thought a good idea would be to ask the council where the bridleway was and ask the council to fulfill its duty to put up a sign post and way markers. You don’t take pot luck riding around the private land upsetting people…
Glad the wife was there to calm down her husband. 👍🏻
You and me both!
Tara so sorry that the farmer upset you so. I thought you handled it very well. And good boy Farouk for standing still so your mum could get back on!! Wonder why the bridleway wasn't marked better?
? Devil's Advocate: Maybe the old codger removed the signpost on purpose to confuse riders...keep in mind, the entrance to HIS property was not marked either!
yes I think he did remove the signs
U argue so sweet .. nice job
Tara you handled that well 😁
He’s not liking that wheel so close to the gate, especially after all that shouting.
Tell him to jog on and have a cry 😂
Well handled, there are nasty people....they just have to be right all the time....You were absolutely correct handling this situation...He should take lessons from your cordial confrontation....Faroukles was ever a gentleman and protector...💓
Good grief. Talking you to death over a wrong turn.
You handled that well. You apologised but stuck up for yourself too. They have clearly come across a few rude horse riders in their time and are treating everyone they meet with the same disdain. I hope they realise after meeting you that all horse riders are ‘ not the same’ a lot of us have good manners and it was such a genuine accident on your part. I think they realised in the end as the helped you find your way. Sorry you were so upset. You didn’t deserve to be treat like that. ☹️
Well done tara a faro ok not a nice situation to be in esp beibg shouted at poor faro ok little ears were back tgey pick up on everything but very well done for standing your ground xx
I don't understand why he was so furious. You were doing no harm. Well done for keeping so calm. Farouk was so patient and sweet.
