So... Where is everyone from?

I am from Hertfordshire small village called Little Berkhamsted originally but these days Lincolnshire is our 21 home. All the moves due to the Army except this last one which was my fault o be closer to the horses.

Not any more! Mumps bridge has been knocked down for the tram tracks to go through. You wouldn't recognise it!

I'm from up the road in Saddleworth. Grew up there, left at 18, lived all over the country and Europe, then came back 18 years later!

I live very near the UoC, or St Martins as we Lancaster folk still call it!

I was originally from near Clitheroe (a village called Grindleton, in sight of Pendle Hill). Moved from there to Maghull, between Ormskirk and Liverpool. Rode in my youth at Aughton and Formby (wonderful beach for riding).

I've been in Lancaster for over 30 years now, so am beginning to be accepted! :D

i live right near st martins too!
 
Noodle_ I used to live around 10 mins from robinsons between Manchester and Liverpool. Maybe we were neighbours!? Although my neighbours didn't own horses, so then again, maybe not...
 
I was born in Chester, Lived a long time in Ormskirk where I learnt to ride at NEC, Fir Trees and then Halsall. Had lessons from Dorothy Johnson at Longacres but on my own horse, bought my first ever riding hat from Springfield Saddlery. Ah the memories.

I then moved to Preston and am still there! I am moving gradually north as I get older and figure I should look for a decent retirement home somewhaere in the highlands of scotland!

I have stabled in Chorley, Brindle, Charnock Richard, Walmer Bridge and Preston so I am guessing I will probably know some of you.

Off now to have a good old nostalgia trip and try and remember all the ponies at the riding schools.

Oooh Chipping is lovely, my friend got married at the Gibbon Bridge Hotel and we stayed at the Inn at Whitewell for my boyfriends birthday a couple of years ago! I'm in merseyside.
 
This is kind of a double post, I got distracted by biscuits in another thread and ended up saying where I am on there, but never mind!

I'm originally from the north east, on Teesside (more northern than where I am now!), but now I live on the curry mile in Manchester (I'm a student, that's my excuse.)

I volunteer at GMRDA at Wythenshawe Park Stables, and on weekends and out of term time you will probably find me hacking around Birtle, near Bury/Heywood. (There will most likely be a grey, a chestnut, and an out of breath walker - 3 people, 2 horses, 1 diplomatic sharing arrangement!)

Always interesting to put a location to a person on here!

I rode at Wythenshawe park stables before it turned into a fancy place with a school etc ;)

When I was there it was just 7 ponies and hacks out around the park. Loved it though and spent 7-8 happy years there and most of my teenage years! LOVED galloping through the park and building jumps in the woods!
