Sorry bad news warning

[Nari]

My thoughts are with her family and friends.

I've been FB friends with her for a few years, such a lovely lady. So very, very sad

 

[LadyGascoyne]

Oh no! How awfully, awfully sad.

What a terribly shocking loss.

Thoughts with everyone who knew her.

 

[HollyWoozle]

That’s really sad news, my condolences to her loved ones.

Devastating news. My thoughts are with her family and friends.

 

[windswoo]

Very sad news. RIP JnB

I don't know how to sensitively ask this at such an awful time, but does anyone know what happened and is her beloved horse ok. I am sure I am not the only one wondering but don't want to distract from the tragic loss of such a popular person.

I won't share any details out of respect for Janet and her loved ones but her much loved Ruari is safely home in his field.

How awful. You just don't expect that sort of thing to happen on a nice hack with a gorgeous little cob. My condolences to all who knew her and I hope her lovely boy is ok.

 

[nagblagger]

Thank you. Joelb

How awful, my thoughts go to her family and all that knew her.

I hope that it is not untoward to report that the inquest into jnb's very sad death has just been held and been reported on in the local rag.

The coroner has ruled that it was accidental. There were no witnesses, she was found lying seriously injured on the road 200 yards from home, and her horse was found unharmed nearby. It will never be known just what happened.

Every time we ride a horse, this could happen to us, it is a dangerous pastime.

RIP Janet.

 

[scats]

I miss Janet a lot and I still struggle to believe she has gone. So tragic.

 

[Rumtytum]

Thank you for the update Tiddlypom. Absolute tragedy, no words to express it.

 

[DressageCob]

It must be so painful for those left behind not to know what happened, when she was such an experienced rider and on a familiar horse.

Such a tragedy.

 

[AShetlandBitMeOnce]

A huge tragedy, RIP Janet.
Mortality and how closely we play with it every time we ride is a sobering thought.
My thoughts are with all of her nearest and dearest, it's a shame they they may have gained relatively little closure from the inquest.

 

[Pinkvboots]

It's so dangerous on roads now I really try to avoid them if I can I went along our lane yesterday it's literally 5 minutes, some arse come towards me full pelt when I shouted out to slow down he called me a c**t.

It is so sad what happened to Janet.

 

[equinerebel]

Like others, I pretty much never think of this happening to me when I get on my horse and go for a hack. Very sobering and tragic. I didn't know her, but I hope she's resting in peace and that her beloved horse is keeping well.
