This is the statement from BE: "Somerford Park statement: A rider suffered a fatal injury at Somerford Park International Horse Trials today (Sunday 18th August 2013). No further information will be released until the next of kin have been informed. Statement from BE Chief Executive Mike...

I know this thread's from a while ago, but the gentleman in the last picture is called Brian Fitzpatrick and he's from Tealing (just outside Dundee) x

Dear All, I don't post much on here (don't even have time to lurk very often either), but, having received a rather disturbing message from a friend last night, I felt the need to put fingers to keyboard........ The friend in question is an experienced judge who also trains and has...

As long as you don't want to jump more than 1m, then look for an Intro show nearby - all the Tickets to Ride are free at Intros x

Hi folks - does anyone know of a litter of cockers (preferably blue roan) that are going to be ready at the end of June/beginning of July? Thanks in advance for any info x Oh, would be ideal if on the West coast too!

Give me strength Thanks to Spudlet et al (who live in the REAL world) for providing some light humour throughout this ridiculousness.

OMG you are re-living my life! Please stop - RIGHT NOW! Your father sounds as if he's the secret twin of mine - uber successful in his own field, slightly divorced from reality! Having acceded to requests/demands relating to their chosen career path, I spent 15 years in a profession...

Done :)

Absolutely fantastic, PMSL :D Just the tonic needed after picking poo out of hair as a result of high velocity winds making the task of transporting said defecatory waste to storage facilty almost impossible! :D

You know, I really should start betting on things - I had a feeling someone would mention that! Yes, I did entitle the thread "Disgusted" as that was how I felt and I was also "saddened" as a secondary reaction. However, the world is still turning, the boys (and girls) are still fighting...

ooooh, that'll be childrens out of the picture for a while :o Full marks to your OH for giving it a good go though

I believe the word I used was "saddened", not offended.......... I realise that some people consider that whatever they happen to be doing at the time, is more important than observing the silence and contemplating those fallen in the service of their country, however opinions and priorities...

Absolutely, I commented on another thread on Thursday in a similar vein. Strangely, I have more sympathy for the folk who were in a workplace environment that didn't observe the silence (and who obviously wanted to) than those who are sitting in front on their computers on a Sunday...

It was 2 minutes out of your life people - why couldn't you do it? Incredibly saddened (but unfortunately not surprised) that people were posting during the 2 minute silence to commemorate those fallen in conflict. To those individuals who posted at exactly 11:00, words fail me (well they...
