Hi, I'm an adult player from the UK, been on here off and on since August 2008 (sometimes real life has to take over too!) I'm not particularly competitive on here, just play for fun as and when I can. I used to breed Paints when I first started but after a long break...well let's just say that now 3* horses aren't the champions they once were 2yrs ago!
In real life I have 3 horses;
Stiltz who I've owned since she was 4, she's now 11. She's a 17hh Bay TBxShire mare who can be quite opinionated and stubborn at times- she's also got a great sense of humour and is very good at putting you in your place!
Idris who I bought off a friend when he was 16mths old, he's a very cheeky 4yr old Dark Bay Reg. Welsh Section D gelding who can be naughty, lovable and frustrating all at the same time! My intention was to sell him on at some point but I think the little welsh monkey's here to stay now!
Fat Pony, 10.2hh 20yr old Bay Welsh Section AxShetland Mare (breed is an educated guess as don't know a great deal of her background) She's a rescue who I loaned from a charity 3yrs ago as a companion, but have since been given ownership of her. She's a little sweetie but can be very spooky and nervy at times. She's currently at a different yard from my other two keeping a shetland pony company. She's never been ridden and is definitely more of a pet!
I also have 4 cats- Murphy, a black/white DSH male who I've had since a kitten, Dylan, a ginger/small white DSH male who I rescued as a 5wk old feral (that's him in my avatar!) He's grown up into a lovable friendly boy who's just a bit lacking in the brain department. Also have Winnie, a tabby/torti/white DSH who is the ruler of the household and lastly Gus,an apricot/white BSHx who is possibly the biggest wimp you'll ever come across. He had a leg removed last year due to arthritis caused by an untreated fracture. Winnie and Gus are both from a charity I used to work for and would highly recommend people give rescue animals a chance when looking for a new pet.
A few photos (please note the lying down one is Idris, he is not dead, just in a very deep sleep!)
If anyone has any questions feel free to PM me- I do accept friend requests but prefer to actually get to know the person a little first. Please also be aware that as I'm a shift worker I tend to be online at different times/sometimes not at all so please be patient when waiting for a response. Thank you. |
