think you've misunderstood, trying to be clever!
I googled online forums to do my search on there. I didn't put the boots in the search bar and it sent me to the forum 🤣 just online forums generally.
If you put the boots in the Google search bar mostly for sale comes up.
This keysoe international thread was at the top at the time. I didnt think that was hard to understand

Oops, my bad! When you said you'd found the reviews, I assumed you meant you'd found them here. Sorry, I really should stop trying to be clever, it never works!

By the way, did you actually mean the Cavallo Sport Boots?

I’m absolutely baffled reading this, as I always am when reading the negatives that are spewed all over about Sarah…. What baffles me the most is I can guarantee that most if not all of them have infact never even met her! As if they had they would realise what a wonderful person she is! I speak from experience! We have personally known Sarah for over a year now and in that year Sarah has been quite literally a fairy godmother to my disabled son who recently received cancer treatment making many of his dreams a reality!! She sent him to the RDA nationals in one of the Keysoe international horseboxes with his pony with a huge send off celebration making him feel like royalty!!! She’s paid a huge chunk of money for one of his wonderful para dressage ponies!! She’s let him train at Keysoe with both of his ponies free of charge!! And she’s about to take him and I to watch the dressage at the Olympics in Paris for the whole weekend!! His first trip out of the country since finishing cancer treatment! He is not the only person she helps, there are so so many like him yet people get hung up that she bought a competition centre for her and her families personal use so they can’t compete there anymore… I mean how entitled are you people?!

I think that’s all great, wonderful and fabulous and I can totally understand why you’re a fan.

But the purchase of the farm, from recollection, was never as a private facility for personal use.

Anyway, it’s great that she’s such a supportive type. If only she could be more articulate, less verbally aggressive and learn to put her points across less bombastically.

also, if the owner needs to defend herself, why on earth has she not defended herself by suing the newspapers? Shes threatened to sue someone on here, so clearly knows how it works and can afford it. yet oddly enough shes never challenged the "lies and bullying" in the press. Weird!

So if you read the news on BBC this week, you would have seen a very poorly edited report, the link is above somewhere. 2 days later the BBC had to issue another. I think she knows how to deal with journalism.

I'm not questioning your post at all, because even if it's not YOUR story, I'm almost certain that it will be someone's story, and I don't doubt there are many more examples where people have been hugely helped.

However Sarah hasn't helped herself here. Until she posted today, there was (I think) only one post that could be considered a little personal - all of the others were commenting on the premises, some expressing sadness that the good times they had previously experienced would not be repeated with the change of use. Sarah then came on with an aggressive and inflammatory tone, and it has inflamed people. That's all.

I think that is all very commendable, but unfortunately all the good she may or may not do is totally blown out of the water by her attitude on this thread and I believe elsewhere, although that is only hearsay, I do not know of her personally of course. But as you say yourself, it does seem to be an annoyingly regular and ongoing thing, all this negative feedback about your friend and benefactor.

I think you are a very good friend yourself to come on so quickly to defend her, much as you did way back in 2021 for the person promoting the child's saddle. Were they a friend of yours also?

So you have to ignore the racist and nasty comments so you keep/gain clients?. This is what's wrong with the world we live in.
I don't know her, I just looked online like everyone else, and i hate bullying.

Pardon me for asking, I am not a native English speaker, but I can't find any racist comments. Did I miss something in translation? Can you point me at them? Just asking, because I would hate to see the racism card used falsely. It's a way too important card, only to be used against real racists.

Go back to page 1 of this thread and read the shitty comments people have written before sarah started to comment. This is what's wrong with the world, people think they can do and say what they like, but if someone retaliates then they are the bad one.
Someone has even put a laughing face on that post pandpadventures has put on. Disgusting!!!!

But why hasnt she sued them for the lies and bullying she claims is happening? The news is where the vast majority of people get their information from, not a forum like this. So again, why hasn't she sued them?

If you are who I think you are, then I have enjoyed your Instagram posts but surely you can see, notwithstanding her being a great friend to you, that her behaviour on THIS post is very far from acceptable.

So you didnt find the information you wanted, but didn't ask about it either and instead made 11 posts defending someone you don't know. Interesting. Do you need help making a post about the boots?

I did find the info I wanted elsewhere, and I bought some. I've competed at keysoe over the years before sarah and after sarah bought it. I just hate to see bullying online.

I did go back and read, and I stand by my post. The majority are posts speculating on/reminiscing on the premises.

There are a couple of references to PPE, with people giving their opinions based on publicly and widely available reports/statistics.

There is nothing I saw that warranted the tone of Sarah's posts.

Must admit this is the post of the thread so far for me….. bravo @SheriffTruman ❤️

Poisonous leprechaun is somewhere. I'm sure that's a derogatory/racist term to say about an Irish person.
Click to expand...
I'm Irish and I certainly wouldn't consider that an offensive racist comment, I know a few little poisonous leprechauns personally, and they assure me they don't find it racist either. In fact they find it quite amusing that anyone would claim it was. Begorra, top o' the morning, etc. etc. 🙄😊
