Wow that is expensive. We had ours PTS last month and for the same it cost £245. ETA they are now owned by CVS.

You’ve made her day 😁

I’ve just realised that I haven’t had any this cold spell but I have been wearing my new Aigle Parcours ISO wellies. They keep my feet really toasty even with thin socks on. Yes, they’re expensive but so worth it.

I’m not in to keeping bits of hair or shoes. My daughter recently gave me a photo book of my oldie and I’ll treasure that when he goes. As for the rest of his stuff I’ll probably give most of it away but selling bits like his saddle.

That’s a Fiona Walker book! ETA i really enjoyed the ones about Tash (3 books I think?)

I assume: I had a lady tell me to “not look for your horse”. It’s not up to you to tell me. Makes you wonder what the back story is?

We stayed at the Premier Inn at Beckton for £49 which is just a few stops on the DLR. We did notice people leaving before and through the jump off and wondered why.

We were there last night and were suprised to see nearly 25% of the seats empty. I suppose they’re just too expensive - we bought ours through Groupon and they were still over £40 half price. Ben Maher’s tribute to Explosion W was lovely. The Hungarian display wasn’t the best one we’ve seen...

Regarding riders choosing to save their horses - I feel that sometimes this is unfair on the audience. I went to the Longines competition near Chelsea one summer and most of the riders just treated the main class we had paid to watch as a schooling round. It got a bit boring watching riders...

Was just thinking yesterday morning that the fields were drying up and then it rained again all day 😕

I’m on a DIY yard and all of the horses are all brought in between 5 and 6pm in the winter. No one lives at the yard and that’s it until morning. I think you’ll find a lot of yards are like that. The yard sounds very nice!

Hope it will be on iPlayer as I’ll be at the London Horse show!

Does it include horses now?

Daughter sent this to me this morning. Made me laugh!
