    Police officers?

    Hi i am not a police officer but work 24hr shifts in the control room. It is actually a lot easier in winter as you have more daylight hrs to ride than you would if your worked mon-fri 9-5. I think your horses get used to it. I have always had mine on DIY and it's not usually a problem...

    E&L insurance

    I had a very bad experience with them a few yrs ago. It took a threat of court action for them to pay out! This was months and months after the claims went in. Never ever again would I use them. I am now with amtrust and they are brilliant. I have sent them a card of thanks after they dealt...
