What can I say? The consummate HHO Event Report-Writer has returned in style
Many congratulations to the rotund Marty for transporting his green-tinged jockey from S to F with such, er, panache (how'm I doing GB??
)
I think today's award, however, has to go to Thistle for managing to convince N that she was pleased to see her when in all honesty she must have been thinking "Oh, God, and we were having such a nice quiet day"
It's amazing how you clutch at straws at the xc start - Tilly is quite amazed and excited by how all the Starters greet her by name
Seriously, though, congratulations on a swift and businesslike return, can't wait to see HH carry on the good work on Thursday
TableDancer you are such a show off: deux points for big word usage.
You've upset me now I know that Thistle was pretending to be pleased to see me...
See ya Thursday, I'll be the one on the big bay thing that grunts a lot (JP's words not mine), you can't miss me/us. Will you be wearing a red carnation?
maybe a complicated pulley system of invisible nylon ropes? i can see myself making my fortune with this idea... the "Clear Round Equine Marionette System". (patent pending, obv.)
haha, okay, umm, it'll be linked to a kind of reverse draw-rein system, so the horse bascules more as his enormohooves pull up. he'll be winning the Hickstead Derby if it works!
