New here :)

[DannyDinosaur]

Hey, I'm new here so thought I'd post a message. Mainly on here to hopefully meet new people in my area - I have visited the site a number of times over the years but I never knew what to post about so never made an account XD

 

[Mrs B]

*waves* Hello! Where do you live and what's the connection that brings you to HHO, DD?

 

[DannyDinosaur]

I live just outside Birmingham well I've been riding for about 13 years so I should fit into a forum mostly dominated by other horsey people XD ... Sadly I no longer have my own though which sucks

 

[Rosepup]

welcome along

 

[DannyDinosaur]

Thanks Rosepup, by the looks of your post count you're fairly new too I'm guessing?

 

[hihosilver]

Welcome! you can post about anything xxxxx

 

[DannyDinosaur]

Haha true, but you know how us men are at starting conversations XD

 

[Midlifecrisis]

Welcome DannyDinosaur good to hear from you.

Hello! I'm just outside brum too.

 

[Mrs B]

There are (funnily enough) quite a few blokes here among the females. In fact, due to user names, unless someone says so, we have no idea. Everyone just starts chatting!

Outside Birmingham? Have lived in Edgbaston and Rubery myself, but know lots of folk on the perimeter ...

Hello and welcome

 

[DannyDinosaur]

Yeah, I noticed that with the usernames and most people don't fill in their profiles ... Well I'm from Tamworth but no one ever seems to know where it is s it's just easier to say "Near Birmingham" XD

 

[Mrs B]

Know Tamworth

But get the gist - I'm now near Banbury, so generally say 'North Oxfordshire'

 

[DannyDinosaur]

I know where that is luckily XD had to take my horse up there to have some scans done at Avonvale when I had him

Small world ... what was wrong with him?

 

[DannyDinosaur]

He was unable to eat so the vet recommended taking him for a scan as he didn't wanna move his head. Turned out he had arthritis in his neck from an injury as a foal, he ended up having to be put down as it had destroyed his vertebrae. I am hoping to get another at some point, I did have a mare on loan last year but the owners randomly stopped speaking to me after a fall lol

 

[Lolita]

A very warm welcome to you.
