It was amazing! I jumped off my sledge half way because I was going to fast so slid the rest of the way on my bum! I'll see if I can find the video (warning it contains a lot of screaming and the repition of the phrase "I'm going to f-ing die" haha

Can you ride in snow? Just wondering, as if you can I want to, have had snow for 4 days already!

i would be very careful if your horses are shod as snow packs in feet but lots of Vaseline and hoof oil helps and i mean lots and lots but personally i would only walk, if you do get some pics
Couldn't find vid, but heres some pics:
It was insane, but I highly recommend that people do not try it, I honestly thought I was going to die!!
Looks extremely steep but great fun how do people run down it???
Love Pics
Have you ever watched it? If not its brilliant to watch soo funny, especially when you get the wimps who go down on their bums!
Love Pics
They don't! They fall down it
i have seen clips of it, i know you get the odd person that hurts themselves. I think i would close my eyes and go down on my bum and hope i make it down
Seriously? Poor People
And a lot of people are paralysed from it, the deaths normally occur because of broken necks/ backs very sad Yeah
I think the best year with the less injuries was one broken ankle and 3 broken arms
poor people Dont want snow We have to get down one hill and up another to get to horses, its only 2 miles but last year my OH had to walk it to sort the boys out!
Snow much better than frost. Hate it when ice hid under snow
Hope you ok. hehe would love to go sledging down some proper hills nothing to steep but steep enough to get some speed 
i've been distracted by horses and work.oops.Oh please have lots of snow in Gloucester especially around the area of Hartpury and then they'll shut the college...I have a 3rd year oral exam on Weds and im really not prepared for it
Hate to disillusion you all kids, but there is only light snow forecast for 3am and the west midlands continue to miss everything everywhere else is getting
You at Hartpury College??? haha know what you mean. Orals are the worst
Where are you? i really want snow
Hate to disillusion you all kids, but there is only light snow forecast for 3am and the west midlands continue to miss everything everywhere else is getting
I love the snow what course you do?
Ohhh Mum!!!!
Actuallly, on a few different weather forecasts they do say it starts at 3am (which originally they were saying 6am) and goes on until 12midday-ish and it will settle and we'll have 2-3inches. Suppose it depends if you're on high or low ground etc...
Ah you see I am near Newent so it only lasts from 3am to 6am apparently? Well, there have to be some plus points of being near Newent I suppose....
I've given up now, what will be will be, nought i can do about it! please please snow, I will be a happy girl so will my horseys and minis as they can play in the snow and also my doggy <does snow dance>
ok thanks, will probably give it a miss then, as you say its not worth it for a few weeks off!!It's your call really. I never do as my horses are shod and their feet snowball. I also worry about the ground underneath and them doing an injury, so IMO, for the sake of a few weeks off, it's not worth it.
But that's just my thoughts on it.
