    • 1975, Jeff Nuttall, You are Cordially Invited to the House Party:
      Starting all that again,
      should her horse collar sprout the fresh
      flowers of her grovelling desire. When
      she said, “I want a baby Henry,” it
      sounded like some grim confession. “I've
      got cancer.” “I had it with your best
      friend” “I want a baby, Henry.” […]
    • 2002 June 7, James A. Abrahamson, Confessions of a Diplomatic Pouch Clerk, Xlibris Corporation, →ISBN, page 326:
      She lay on the bed and pulled her miniskirt down to reveal her horse collar. 'Well, pull it off,' said Audball. 'I'll have to take my boots off,' she warned.

But his equipment was in a lift-off mode and if he aborted, he would suffer with the blue balls, so he put on two rubbers and held his nose.
