Me me me......arriving Thurs am at about 7am to have time to pitch up at the campsite and staying until Sun night.
Will be with hugely pregnant sister (Abs on here) so look out for 2 blondes in lots of joules gear one with wine/ciggie in hand...the other with a large bump!
I would love to watch all 3 phases....but on a limited budget this yr. We will go to the x country I should think (and try desperately to avoid all those lovely shops)
Yipeee... me my hubby and me son are off on the wednesday, staying in our caravan until the sunday... so exciting, hope the weather is good..... fingers crossed. I like to watch the dressage and listen to the commentry, you can learn so much! we walk the course on the thurs/fri, then on sat we will get out comfy charis and park our arses in front of the big screen.. surrounded by food and drink... ahhh what could be better... also love to watch the run up on sunday morning...
2 years a go i RAN RAN RAN the whole course after ollie townend and finished a mere 3 seconds behind his XC time! i was knackered but it was worth it! lol
im there wednesday to sunday as i only live 15 minutes away, will be doing lots of shopping esp as we had a foal born on sat, our first foal from a maiden mare, she has been excellent! (see pic in picture gallery - woodys foal Nico)
won't ever go again
XC day is just too crowded and far too much dog pooh round the trade stands
also last time I went I was on a stand by the lake - note word STAND - and a bloke deliberately pushed me down the stand and caused me injury - it was deliberate - he was 'caught' by Police and warned.
That sort of behaviour just for a 'view' is out of order and sorry but I won't pay to go there again.
Im going hopefully but Im on the waiting list for a horse box space (fingers crossed). If we get in there will be 6 young ladies in a bright blue box with dark blue stripe - come say HI!
If we dont get a space we will only go for the XC.
I'm going Wednesday to Sunday...stopping in caravan with my best mate! I sent off the form to get temporary club membership to the on site pub ....so may see people in there in the evenings!
I've not been to Badminton before. Went to Blenheim for the European championships a couple of years ago which was fab...and have booked to go there in September!
Going Thursday to sunday.We are caravaning.After many years of tenting it!.I will put our Flag up on the awning (the black and white on in my siggy).Come over and say hi and have a drinky!.
going friday and sat hopefully. booked the day of months ago, and cant wait... only been once before in 2005! loved it soooo much! blenheim is only 5 mins away from me and go every year but badders is just brill! cant wait
