How long b4 we stop winging about snow and start on the mud?!

[avthechav]

... It will be about 3 days for me!

 

[VioletStripe]

I'm thinking around 2 weeks

[TinselRider]

Ill just be so thrilled to be riding again I have vouched NOT to moan

Matter of hours for me I suspect.

Thawing fast here and the lanes are now little rivers where the meltwater can't soak into the frozen ground.

Soon the top surface of the fields and tracks will defrost and all that lovely water will mix into the top 2" of clay and voila! ankle deep mud. Then I'll be wishing for it to freeze again....

Ok, change that 'matter of hours' to two minutes!

Nothing is ever right for you guys is it

The amount of "fed up of mud" glorious mud" "mud mud mud" posts before christmas is just the same as the amount of "i hate snow" related ones, maybe i could come on here in summer and see no one moaning about weather or fields?? or am i asking too much

lol

 

[stencilface]

Then it'll whineging about the heat, the summer 'drought' and before you know it'll be winter again and the world of HHO will be back to whingeing about snow and ice again

What would we talk about if the UK didn't have such extreme weather?!

 

[longtalltilly]

Right about now!

 

[avthechav]

...dont forget the flies in summer, that is defo something to winge about!

 

[Moggy in Manolos]

Well it is good to hear that some places are starting to thaw, I want it to thaw so I can get to my horse more easily, cant get back up the lane if I drive down it at the moment! So either have to get a lift for the last part or walk, which I am simply not doing at 5.30am of a morning, will have to ask YO to turn out this week until its thawed.
I would happily welcome the mud, but no doubt I will not like it too much, but I would prefer it over this right now

 

[Enfys]

Ohhhhh, not until about April for me, and then I don't get more than enough to get their hooves mucky, nothing to moan about

 

[Apercrumbie]

Well I haven't been whingeing much as I do love snow but I HAVE ONLY RIDDEN TWICE IN THE LAST MONTH!! Phew, glad I got that out of my system. The reason I haven't been moaning yet is because when it melts, my field will return to its usual swamp/bog/quagmire status

The joys of England! I may relocate

And now my official "not moaning" status has been broken.

 

[Mike007]

Phew what a scorcher. Will this neverending heat let up.

 

[pottamus]

I am looking forward to the thaw...even if that means mud...hopefully then my lad can have some grass again.

 

[JoBo]

It’s going to be a good few weeks here I think! But at the moment I would absolutely love to see some mud, glorious mud!

 

[Chumsmum]

I'm praying for Big Melt!

I will *try* not to moan about the mud and me and my friend have vowed we will hack even if it's raining hard as we have missed riding so much!

 

[Kallibear]

I don't want it to melt! I'm perfectly happy with the snow. Have to park and walk the last half mile but rather that than knee deep mud.

I still officially love the snow.
