What’s inside a leather kit?
HORSE lady Emma Rorke posted on Facebook: “When my
black Friday box of leather goodies gets delivered to my office
and my work colleagues start questioning what do I really do
after hours… Thank goodness I didn't order a dressage whip!”
Emma’s kind of said what we wanted to say. We’d add,
however, ‘Where are the handcuffs, leash and blindfold
mask?’ And ‘Emma, do you take appointments?’
