I really like this forum, learning a lot.

@Ratface I’ve always wanted to ask, where did your name come from?

It’s so good! You’ll learn so much from people and it’s so useful to just bounce ideas off people.
You do have to pick and choose advice but quickly learn who knows their stuff

We're also blummin good at supporting people when they're having a bad time, for any reason. .

This is the only social media thing i'm on - i wouldn't have time for any others, agree with above, suckered in.
There are little spats on some subjects, but then agree on others, such a diverse forgiving community.

Absolutely. Horse related or not

So I've noticed in several threads. It's one of the reasons I really like it here.

Me as well. No fb, insta, x or whatever. That's not for me.

Me too, don't do any others, may explain why I'm here every waking hour

Sure we are all pretty glad of that!

It's a reflection of the face that my beloved Old Horse (purebred Crabbet Arabian) makes when he sees me! Head over the stable door, long snake neck waving in a threatening way, and long yellow teeth clapping in a menacing manner! On the production of a carrot, he reverts to his usual polite self, takes it and peace and harmony is restored.

Found it when I bought my first horse. Have learned so much over the years. Every day is a school day! Lots of laughs too. Pic of best boy Pete (RIP). The reason I’m here!

I'm reasonably certain "all" isn't the case

There is a horse at my work called Ratface (weirdly!)
He was long term resident at a previous work so I’ve known him years now.
He’s a real sweetie and I’ve often thought I’d snap him up on retirement.
