I live ten minutes away from junction 15a on the M1 so if you fancy dropping by some time I can introduce you to some easy natured mounts and can supply you with a back protector and an escort - I promise not to put you on my mare she is a bit of a psycho!!!

I never took any bad falls when young but unfortunately my current mare is a bit of a handful at times - particularly jumping. She has the power to clear a 4'6" fence with no probs but getting her turns just right is difficult and if you don't she just puts in raw power and jumps me out of the saddle. My days of just getting up and walking away from these things are past!!!!
Do you have Le TREC competitions in the States? If you are not sure what they are look them up on the British Horse Society web site - it would take too long to explain. They are just great - that's the sort of thing I am into these days. I am also going to start doing some endurance riding - I do my first qualifier on 30th Sept.
My H has just agreed for me to put my mare in foal next spring. She is three quarters TB and one quarter ID but she looks more 50:50. I can't decide what to put her to a the moment - I expect it will be another TB but I am open to suggestions. My horse is a typical chestnut mare!!!!
Do you know much about Mark Rashid?

Saffie - when life is a little calmer I might do that, thank you. I haven't ridden for years, mainly because of my back. 15a really isn't that far. . . .
I don't keep my car in central London, but can access it.
I'll email you my cell phone so that you can contact me if the urge takes you one day - I nearly always have my cell phone on me.
It would be a pleasure to meet you. Even if you don't fancy riding but you are coming up the country call me and we could meet up. Otherwise I will make my way down to London. Saffie
