    to all you FATTISTS out there please read this

    And it cost themselves money too - I do have diabetes, so yes, I cost the NHS money, but I also make a very large contribution (NI contributions and Tax) every month as I work full time - don't get me started on the whole who costs how much - if you drink/smoke/eat unhealthily/take part in high...

    Having another crisis - Do you actually enjoy jumping bigger than 1.10?

    It's amazing how quick things that look big, suddenly don't seem that big anymore. I remember my daughter being on ponies, and moving through the bottom hole jumping to the 2ft3, 2ft6 etc., then doing trailblazers, 75/85/95. The first 1.05 she did was petrifying - but then we started BS, and...

    Burgham horse festival

    My daughter is competing there this weekend, and is dead excited. She's bringing four horses with her, and it's a drive all the way from Kent (Canterbury), so hope it's worth it for her. Good Luck Baby - you know who you are. x

    "Ellen Whitaker refuses to ride for Britain under Rob Hoekstra".

    This is a reply to no-one in particular, but my observation is, that maybe BS (ie. RH), is just as fed up as we are, with people at the top of their game, cherry picking what they want to do. Team members can't pick and choose where they want to jump, just because their name is Whitaker. I...
