bonsoir peeps

so, i have a new(ish) horse, who i LOVE. he's called Raf.
He's 15.1, hanoverian x polish warmblood. currently used as a little safe plod-about as i'm preggers, but will hopefully soon be taking me to little local shows and doing some jumping.

He doesn't have a 'show name' (are they still called that?) and i can't think of ANYTHING.

Can anyone think of a name connected to Raf? or maybe even an unconnected but nice name...?

i'm stumped.

ooh, yes, then there's still a bit of RAF theme... i was concerned about putting anything about 'flying' in there... as he is a plod, not a flyer... and i didn't want snobby people on the sidelines laughing at me doing pony club/thelwell kicks whilst his name was read out as 'flying superstar' or something...!

i just looked to see what number one was when he was born...

darius, with 'colourblind'... hmmm... maybe not that one!

What about some RAF victories? Like Battle of Britain, or something to do with a Hurricane/Squadron?

anything with hurricane in is a good one... as he suffers from rather bad bottom burps...!

but chocks away is quite fun and quirky.

oooh, so many ideas now!

how about Scramble?

or

Raffles Bomber!!!

If it was Colourblind, they wouldn't let him fly a plane in the RAF!!!!!!
