I had been to a riding club near London. It
is often said that English are posh riders, but I must deny that and tell you
that I’ve seen far more “chique” riders in France! Not that it is a problem,
but I have found out that it is hard to get accepted into such a group in
France without introduction. This was absolutely no problem at all in this
English club! As soon as they saw that I
shared the same passion (for horses), they considered Me immediately as one of
them.

What I also noticed was that English are
skilled and dedicated riders and that they pay close attention to a smart
outfit, something I also find important. I find it a disgrace when riders come
at the riding club in dirty boots or jacket or so. OK they can get dirty during
a ride, but not at the start of it!
So I already made a few friends in the short
period I was there and already made promises (and plans) to come back soon.
