Very interesting, thanks for the information. I just had a look at the results and I cannot work out (bar a few very obvious people) who the team will be, although I expect you have much more inside info! Have they made the measuring in more strict recently? I know they have in show jumping...

Thank you very much, and does anybody happen to know if they all measured in ok? I had heard that there were slight concerns over a couple..

Does anybody know the results from the trial or know where I would be able to get them please? Thank you :)

Oh yeah, I know the place, that's fairly close to home! If I remember rightly is this the place that has been under dispute for quite a few years?

Thanks for the warning. Where abouts is the site that is being closed?

Does anybody know how to get radio badminton? I have followed the links posted on the live feed but they don't seem to be working for me.

Ahh i see, thanks very much. Reading that has reminded me of his trip at the step at Badders last year :(, we were there watching on the screens and were so unbelievably gutted after he had ridden such an amazing round! I suppose that's eventing for you sometimes isn't it...

I know, I'm gutted :( Does anybody know why Sir Percival is having a reasonably late start this year?

A minimum of an A in both Biology and Chemisty at A level, but don't feel that you have to add physics and maths to that. Uni's want to see that you can show a diverse range of knowledge/skills so something like geography, history or a language are equally as good and may even give you an edge...

I will if you are still looking for people :)

Ditto all of the above. Also it really annoys me when people walk around the track at two or even sometimes three abreast, having a little natter even when the ring is packed. It then becomes impossible to safely get round the outside of them, blocks the track next to the fences and means that...

Yeah I'll definitely give that a go as it does make much more sense. Nerves have always been a bit of an issue for me when warming up, but seem to be fine when I'm actually in the ring. I don't know if it's because there are lots of people in there or something but it usually ends up with me...

That does make sense, but for me i think it is largely psychological and i feel that I'm only properly warmed up if I have warmed in round both ways. Therefore in reality i think that if i do not get the opportunity to do so it does not really make much difference to the horses way of going...

Yes, I do try and get a quick trot and canter round on the other rein, ideally when it is not too busy. The looks you sometimes get from those who do not can be quite off putting though at times!

Oh excellent. I have booked myself into one now and am really looking forward to it :)
