Standing on Horse Guards for hours, these horses also get very bored. A horse called Obelisk had to be taken off duty after he began to amuse himself by keeping back a little of his breakfast in his cheek. Once on duty, he’d let the feed trickle out, wait for a pigeon to fly down – then stamp on it. There were even rumours that the horse once targeted a tourist’s pug.
God, sounds like the sort of thing VEH would have done!
