Or step aside politely and as the horse passes jam your walking stick deep into the part of the horse where the sun don't shine, and if she is a good horsewoman she will be miles away from you within minutes ! if not she will be on her knees in front of you as the horse goes for the land world speed record. . (disclaimer . this action should only be carried out in a cartoon world where no one and no animals ever get hurt. No horses or rude horsewomen were injured in the imagining of this fantasy...your honour)Whilst out hiking a couple of months ago, I and my pal were walking (at some speed) up a path that was about five feet wide when we heard an angry shout from behind us. It was a lady on horseback who was cross that we were holding her up. I suggested she might like to fit a bell to the harness as an audible warning of approach. She wasn't amused. She had to wait until the path widened enough for her to pass us safely. It was nice to have the roles reversed for a change.
