Trish, I would love it if you would take one of your gorses on thehunt as a HIlltopper. I can only imagine the comments as that can bea very snooty crowd at times. It would be great - they just wouldn't get "it"
Did you see the picture of the pony called "Frank the Tank"? He was definitely not a typical looking hunter! There were quite a lot of draft crosses - not very refined looking at all. Everyone on the Tally-Ho wagons was very nice but I do know what you mean about snooty. I found it more amongst the younger riders. The older ones were very warm. Trish
