Will look at 60 m arena in morning!! Hope i come up with something funnier! x
PS: A lovely young lady asked me why we have these letters? I honestly don't know, + told her. I think it stems from German language? I'd love to know (with apologies that i don't know German) BS x

All King Edward's Horses Can Make Big Fences. I don't know if this means his horses were skilled at jumping or fencing.

For the middle letters:
God's
Xylophone
Dinged
(Please don't ask why, but can't you just imagine a big guy in the sky dinging on a xylophone? I can anyway. I think I came up with that doing some godawful dressage to music on a very non-dressagey pony!)

All King Edwards Horses Can Make Big Fences - I couldn't think of any for the large Arena but I always remember SR as at the top of the Arena ie toothpaste name used on teeth at the top of your body and VP is at the bottom of the arena so it stands for Visible Pantyline! Bizarre I know but it works for me
