Hiya Keith,
My mailer has screwed up all the attributions, the bits that show who
wrote what. I've put them back in, but there may be mistakes. :-(

He should become a beautiful horse to ride too! I can imagine you not
liking city life. I do, but only if I'm within reach of the countryside.

>>>You want to know something. ID kill for some snow right about now.
I got an email from someone in Sydney, Australia the other day. She said
exactly the same, but it was 45 degrees (113 Fahrenheit) there. The
North of England is due some tomorrow and the South during the next few
days. It's about 34 Fahrenheit here and I'm coooold! 
>>>indee it warmer here. But I miss the snow. we hardly got any..
>>>Damm. :-(
"Horses for courses", as they say. We like what we're used to. The
English don't though. We're always whinging that it's either too hot or
too cold. 
>>>Too much of cowboy i guess. yah. well.  and yeah. miss driving the
>>>old farm truck down our long lane.. and  race our colt. kinda of
>>>funy. I put old ford truck in low gear. and  duke will run upto the

>>>Funny,.,. then he will snort and run  through the bushes and start
>>>to run around mom.. oh how i miss  watchimh him do colt stuff. makes
>>>me smile. (Sigh)
I miss regular riding too. I used to ride a thoroughbred ex-racehorse
most days. A few times I did a long hack and it was a constant battle
to keep him collected and stop him taking off at a full gallop.
Sometimes he's spook at something and then I really had to work to calm
him down. He used a standard snaffle which probably wasn't severe
enough, but at least I knew I wasn't damaging his mouth. :-)
>wonderin if any gals out There would like to chat with me about

>Can't help you on that one, but good luck anyway!
>>>Heh. well Thanks for the reply.  anywhoo. take care eh
You'll have to hook in to the local conferences to find more people I
guess. This has become rather a quiet echo these days. It might be worth
checking the pet echoes and seeing if there are any horse lovers there.
Good luck Keith.
All the best,
Dave
