More Fools On Horses - Scotland

[Noodlejaffa]

Did anyone go to this at the weekend? And if so, who won?!

I was with Andrew H when he was practising vaulting and I have to say it was just hilarious to watch.

Just wish I could have gone along to the night as it seemed like such a brilliant idea.

Not heard of this- is there a link or can you explain what it is? I'm guessing it's a "swap diciplines" type event?

Basically it was a charity event which saw various Scottish equestrian stars having a go at different disciplines to see who was the best overall horse man/woman. People that were taking part:

Ian Stark for Eventing, Evelyn Frame for Endurance, Joanna Barry for Dressage, Philippa Gammell for Driving, Andrew Hamilton for ShowJumping, Tina Von Gehlen for Reining and Ann Stark( Rogerson ) for Vaulting.

If Andrew's practice performance was anything to go by, it was going to be a very good evening's entertainment!

Damn it - never heard anything about it, bet andrew was hilarious!

Where was it being held?

 

[Noodlejaffa]

Ingliston Stud, I think. I, unfortunately, had friends staying ( very non-horsey friends) so couldn't get across to it.

It was in aid of The ILPH and spinal research.

Andrew said he was looking forward to his lycra last week! Glad it went well!

 

[Noodlejaffa]

I saw the outfit, but sadly didn't see him wearing it. His language was choice as they dangled this lycra suit in front of him!!

PMSL - I can imagine!
