HOW FECKING EXITED AM I ????

4 Jul 2004

So excited I can't even spell it. lol

:bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce:
I've been up at the stables most of the late afternoon helping C with some fencing and making a new paddock.
AND SHE'S JUST SENT ME DOWN TO GET CHANGED SO I CAN RIDE HER BIG FELLA (17HH Hanovarian)
Problem is, she says I have to take him over some jumps. 17hh - long way down. He's only seven and she's always said he would be too strong for me and he can be a little fizzy at times.
This will be my first time on horse since by boy died in May.
I am soooooo excited. If I don't post again tonite, you'll know i've come a cropper.
Gotta go now. WOOOHOOOOOO WOOOHOOOOOOO

Sorry mate, but anything that can think for itself I'm disinclined to have anything to do with.
Give me a nice Transalp any day. wink

Well - he's not back yet so he either hasn't fallen off - or else he is on his way to A & E

I remember the first time I got on another horse after I had to have mine put down... It's sad but exciting at the same time.... Just enjoy it kiss

Hi all,
We (that is Dambuster and me) have just got back from the stables. For all you ladies out there looking for a man that will come riding with you, spend long hours at the stables with you and take a genuine interest in your hobby/work then I know just the man!
We have had a fantastic time - and to top it all, I have won the charity football sweep at work!!! lol

HA HA PORTUGAL LOST!!

Just got the laptop back !!!!
That was fanbloodytastic.
Confession - That's the first jumping i've done and not fallen!! I don't think I came close to falling. Even when he stopped dead a couple of times or ran out.
Now I can really see why she gets such a buzz from it.
I am actually struggling for words here. (yeah, yeah, yeah - I know!!)
So I'd just like to say thank you all for the encouragement and support, and a MASSIVE thank you to C for allowing me and encouraging me. Please allow me to send you this - kiss

PS Someone PM'd me with the title "horse riding" but I can't find it now, I didn't read it straight away cos I was in an excited rush and thought I could read it when I came back but now it's gone :cry:

You'll get yours Lady !!!!

Mmmmn. I've just had a thought.
I hope that CarrieAnn and me are not creating any false impressions here or encouraging anyone to read between the lines something that is not there.
C, would you expand on this sometime in the week; or do you think it's clear???
See you next weekend. Unless I run out of time somewhere near you.

I used to ride horses but I had a bad fall once before, I also have the chance to ride military horses they belong to the Kings Troop and they are lovely but I was told if I fall wrong again there is a chance I wont walk away from the fall. I miss riding but I do enjoy walking too if only I was better at the things I enjoy

All of my last horse rides were sad? When one of the springs bust on its front leg, we had to have it chopped up for firewood.. I can ill remember too when at school the fatefull day i was attempting the flares I caught my doo dahs on the end and the world went black as I passed out onto the mat...
Am I on the wrong thread AGAIN...?

I LOVE riding...............

Horses scare me.....
At the tender age of 8and a bit, my parents took me on one of many "educational holidays" (you know the type... walking on hills, visiting book shops, going to see somewhere with a history, and at 8 it was booooooooooring, lol) anyways...
there was some stables at this particualr historical place, and above the half door that stables have was a sign... said.... "Do not pet, this horse bites"
Being 8 and a bit I felt this did not apply to me... so strolling up being all brave, I put my hand up to pet the horses head... the horse looked at me and, with hindsight must have thought oh gooody another kid, and lowered its head...
Cool thought I, the sign was wrong...
Chomp went the horse, up went its head, taking with it a large chunk of my t-shirt and almost my nipple... took weeks for the bruising to go down and my nipple to look half way normal. The bugger drew bloud to top it all!
Since then... if it looks like a horse, or pony, or shetland or any such equestrine animal... I keep well clear.
I have 4 phobias, horses, daddy (jenny) long legs, heights, and stag beatles..... oh 5 if you also include the maggoty things from an old doctor who episode :shock: :shock:
