I am so looking forward to going to Badminton this year - 2 weeks Friday now! I've had a very crappy 6 months for various reasons (non-horsey, just dealing with two beareavements) and am so looking forward to visiting with four good friends! You know when summer is on its way when Badminton arrives - I love watching these special horses and their riders, I love the shopping and I love the grounds and surroundings! To have a couple of days there will be the best tonic that is very much needed, even though I will be very much financially lighter afterwards!
 
I will be glued to the red button :-)

Its is so annoying I can't go grrrr I don't think the red button will show thurs and fri dressage double grrrrr........I think Horse and Country will be showing Clips at the end of everyday online which will be great and to make sure I get all the XC I reckon I'll get the Live feed aswell.

So jealous for those going watching from my laptop will have to do for me.......
 
Yep mega excited - going two days instead of ususal one volunteering for WHW one day so that should be different. Have had pretty rotten last year too so is something to look forward to. Am on crutches but I'm determined I'm going to enjoy it.
 
I can't wait, watched the course walk the other night on Horse & Country with my other half and we both got even more excited about it.

Great now they have changed it to the bank holiday weekend and pushed it back a day as well as now we get to go for 3 days instead of 2!!

It will be strange having dressage on the Saturday though - how many people do you think will turn up without realising expecting to see the X-Country??
 
Due to the change of days this year, Im going with my friends to celebrate my rapildy forthcoming 40th birthday on Saturday and Sunday. Just emptying all the coffers for the spending money!!
 
i'm so glad someone's posted this thread! i'm so so so excited this year, haven't been in a couple of years, it's my birthday on the sun so i'm going then :D
 
i can't wait!!!!! I am in work, it is 1.06am tuesday morning and all i can think is i still have 3 more days to go!!!! (i have tickets for friday).

I can't wait, i am like a child!!!!
