Simply because it's quite nice to chat to someone who shares a common interest otuside sex!
And no, before the inevitable posts start, they don't frot themselves on the pommel and no jods aren't that sexy, not when they are covered in hay and horse slobber! |

Is it wrong that I find the mixed odour of a stable yard extreemly alluring? especially this time of year with a touch of frost in the air...
Yeah I know, I am a lost cause |

For a second I thought your username was artificalMane!
So, now we're all here what shall we do?
Organise a PC rally? (As in Perves Club, obv, not the other one).
Nortys and Pony, I think we might get on - drop me a message (age range means I can't message you...)

Happy memories of going to the Charing Point to Point races in my teens. Growing up in the country...they were a social event  |

"We had 44 of them at one stage.
It's not something you really grow out of when it's your livelyhood."
What sort of yard?
Tough old liveliehood, it's real love not money stuff, unless you are brilliantly talented. |

Can't see how you do the eventing without the odd bit of dressage! It's actually fascinating, just not the way so many pure dressage people do it! I swear half their horses never leave the school. Horrid life. |

That's like saying that an AI is a good instructor.
The only way to learn is on horseback, not from a test or from reading books.
Each to their own but dressage was a no thank you from us. |

Agree about 90% of AIs being rubbish. And as for equine NVQs....well....
But seriously, surely you see the point of soem dressage? Even a lot of NH yards are doing basic flatwork with their horses now. |

We aren't in the game anymore.
Moved into Mr M's field of expertise mow as it's far more lucrative.
Haven't ridden since the day we packed up 16 years ago. |

I used to say that, but it is actually very interesting. I'd rather have teeth pulled than actually ride a test but it's a great way of educating a hoss - provided it does the fun stuff too! |

Dressage is quite interesting to watch to be fair. It’s just not something that I’ve ever wanted to get into myself. |

I miss my horsey days. Only the motorbike to keep me sane these days!
I loved hacking. Hated showjumping. Loved stable management. Never hunted. If I wanted a fox dead, I would shoot the buggler.
Miss the companionship of the horses. And the donkeys. I loved them too! |

Now showing is something I have never managed to get my head round. There goes any chance of a playdate with Tequila  "
It's a bit more social than dressage, seems a waste spending hours getting ready to turn up at an allotted time, spent 4 1/2 minutes in the ring and go home again, I have done dressage but it's more fun at home than competing |

True, but it seems to get pretty competitive, unlike say eventing where everyone is in it together really and winning is kinda incidental. OK that's a rose-tinted view.
So I haven't blown my chances yet! |

As does team-chasing, hunting, pointing and going for a quiet hack down the road when the wrong butterfly flies off. WHY do we bother? |

I like dressage done properly (classical), I’m no expert at it but have been known to compete locally just to do something different. Dressage is a great grounding for so many things and I find it helps deepen the understanding between horse & rider.
I prefer local showjumping, although I’ve been too busy with work this year to compete really. I have 5 ex racers, a warmblood and my sons’ caspian arabian mare, possibly adding a couple of dartmoors in a couple of weeks. I run a small livery yard mostly filled with my own horses, ducks chickens etc - it’s my slice of headspace |

"I also keep a few horses and would like to chat to ladies that are also interested in them. I’m into the forbidden to many part of it. #hunting !!!!!!"
I took my new ex racer at the time to the Boxing Day meet, I was rather merry and he was fresh and snorting like a demon.. it was interesting  |
