Hi I don't have the time/money to ride much anymore and I certainly couldn't do my own horse justice. I wondered if any of you wanted some help for free at events. I'm a bit ring rusty but I'm sure I could still clean tack, call a dressage test, help with showjumps or getting a horse (and...

At Christmas I rediscovered a great book, 'Will to win', Rachel Hunts utobiography and it got me wondering, whateer happened to her? She looked like a brilliant rider yet I didn't hear anything at all from her in the 90's...

am I the only one who thinks that all this talk about people's private lives is a bad thing?!

Hey Do any of you know anywhere good where a five year old boy could learn to ride in the Bath/Box area. It's way out of the way I have ever ridden but a few of you seem to know the area. Any help much appreaciated, PM if you'd rather.. sometimes it is useful to know where NOT to go!) Thanks Ali

I was making a bit of a glib point! Seriously.. I wonder what you have ll done about it though. I'm not suggesting people haven't done anything but you know people complaining and not doing anything to make it better is one of my pet peeves. Clearly I don;t know enough about any of you to make...

Please can you not write in text speak and change your signature from all caps. I'm not saying this to be difficult I genuinely find it very hard to read as I am sure others will. I hope you find your old horse but don't you want as many people as possible to read about him. Stick everything in...

Hi Anyone know anywhere good for beach riding where you can borrow horses in the South West/Wales? I would like the Midlands to be an option but clearly there be no beaches there. I'm looking to go next weekend (yes I know its last minute), cost not too much of a problem. OH is a big lad so...

[ QUOTE ] Ok thanks VIC i ahve lost my paper but the title is more of less as follws, does a country's goverment system reflect its electoral system and or its people and nations population thinking [/ QUOTE ] First off you need the title page - you won't get the same strength of argument...

Hi I'm pretty new here and I wondered if anyone had any brainwaves about how I can get back involved with horses. (I hope this is in the right forum) I rode for about 10 years, but stopped when I went to uni (money, injury yadda sure you heard it all before) however I am really keen to get...
