How Dare She!

Oh come on....where's your sense of fun!! Real bitches are by far the best sort to wind up

.

To be honest it does happen over here too - there is a big English versus western "thing" going on. The English riders appear to feel FAR more superior to the western riders.....I always find it funny as all of the English riders I have personally met over here, can't bloody ride, LMAO!! Whereas the western riders are damn good riders - total naturals.

I am an enigma to them all as I ride very proper English when I ride English and am a fairly nice and competent western rider aswell

. They really don't know quite how to deal with anyone who does both.

If I was you I would be absolutely dying to see her at the weekend! Honestly, the fun to be had almost makes me want to fly back to help you along with doing your duty.

Don't worry she probably can't actually ride one side of her pre-produced drones without a professional 'setting it up' for her.

Hee hee, I'd ask her to come and ride 'The Worm' and see how she gets on, now that would be funny.......

Gee Skewbald, why would you think she was an American? I'm an American, don't compete, ride a grade Quarter Horse with used tack, do all my own horse work plus work to support my horses and other critters. I wouldn't look down my nose at anyone's horse. I think people that don't ride outside of an arena with their trainer at their side miss all the fun of a having a horse. Nothing beats a nice trail ride (hack) on a crisp fall day or the first warm day of spring.

Oh it wasn't a generalisation, she sounded exactly like my ex boss, right down to the finger nails and the lack of comprehension of a non competing rider LOL.
But I guess they're the same, world wide. Marry the money, **** the help, pay for their nails and talk down to the rest of us LOL.
If she comes in with hubby, can I suggest that you try your best to be apple cheeked, good humoured and feminine, and flirt with him in a Cider With Rosie sort of way? That'll tick her off .......
 
I have friends who only move in the higher circles of the horse world, all the horses they deal with are hugely expensive eventing or dressage types, they are always immaculately turned out and certainly carry the smell of money around with them.

Maybe only I and their close friends know that they have done their own horses that morning, mucked out their own boxes, do all the exercising - because they are very good at giving the impression that they never get their hands dirty.

These people do move in a different world where cobs and hairy ponies somehow don't exist. You can bet if they have a companion pony somewhere it will be clipped and buffed to within an inch of it's life, because the image of success is just as important as the reality.

Underneath it all, many are truly lovely people, some are not and are simply well funded bitches.

I wish I could find a way of looking that immaculate straight after doing the horses, but can't seem to escape from sweaty and slightly grubby, no matter how hard I try.
 
For every person like that there will probably be 2 or 3 people who would give their right arm to be able to ride your horse and probably even more to actually own one!

I agree with the watcher though, we can all be quick to draw asumptions about people that might be wide of the mark.

Don't let it bother you OC, so long as you enjoy you horse what the hell do you care what anyone else thinks anyway?
 
Poor woman, she prob misses out on all the best parts of having a horse.. Sorry she got to you but you have the higher ground.

I've met her type before.. don't let it get to you, I guarantee she has a huge dressage warmblood she can't ride one side of, goes to a known trainer who hates her guts because she is totally talentless and thinks she's done incredibly well if she gets placed in the top ten un-affilliated..
She'll have a vast horsebox with expanding sides, the latest tack/clothes and kit, and no doubt someone else grooms her horses..

oh oh LOL I have met that lady, she keep her horse at my yard! And don't forget that she will also complain totally unresonably about every aspect of her horse's care (horse goes with another horse... " oh no, she will be kicked , horse goes out alone oh no, she will pace up and down the fence ) Aren't people fun?
 
I'm with you Lilym, I have a hairy cob that I hack around on, school etc. I hack to local shows and have a go - I say hack to local shows and have a go - that was one show last year and one show this year!!!!!
grin.gif
I work three jobs to keep him but he's fitter than a lot of people who compete regularly!!!! By the sounds of that woman - her horse is on full livery and she just rides as and when!!!! No tack cleaning, sh*t shoveling for her!!!! But I bet she doesn't have the bond that we have with our horses!!!!

I WOULD HAVE JUST HAD TO WIND HER UP SOMETHING CHRONIC!!!!!!!!!!

Oh that sooooo reminds me of someone I used to know.

I used to be liveried in a yard in Kent, the YO was so far up her own a*se it was unbelievable. Wore the best of gear, german everything. It was my first ever yard with my first ever horse & the place was fabulous, I lasted 6 months, could have decked her many times. Within 2 days of being there she said she hated TBs, hated mares, and anything other than dressage was a complete waste of a horse, OMG and I was leaving my horse in her care. I remember putting a pair of blue WW brushing boots on my horse & she was totally disgusted, "white darling, white"!!!! The hairs on the back of my neck stand up now even the mere mention of her name which I won't mention as anybody in the North Kent area will definitely know of her.
 
I find that happends alot around here in Surrey, people have to much money at times and would'nt dare pick up a muck folk and look and talk to others like s***....LOL
But on the other hand their are also lots of people who are just false....
