I was just wondering how many folk hereabouts hang out within striking distance of Hyde Park?
Because…
In my head this morning is the weirdly random thought of, when my contract ends, putting Vin in the lorry and driving in to London to spend some time hacking through Hyde Park.
And maybe having a picnic.
So, you know…. Just wondering, like. If anyone would like to meet my charming man horse.
Sadly I live in Manchester which is not very near Hyde Park at all. If you fancy taking Vin a bit further afield there are some very nice parks up here! If I happen to be in the capital when you are having your hack and picnic though then definately count me in!
Are you allowed to ride horses in Hyde Park?
I’m not a million miles from Hyde Park – obviously, otherwise I’d be living on the moon or something.
When does your contract run out?
I’m also near ish Hyde Park. I might even come out on a hack with you. Despite not having gone riding for oooo…. 11 years.
*sob*
You should have brought Vin along today 🙂
Vicola, thanks for the offer. There are, as you say, many nice parks in Manchester. I used to live very near one when I worked in Sale for a year.
Perpetual Spiral, yes indeed. There’s sand-laid bridleway network around the perimeter. The Royal Horse Artillery exercise their horses in the park every day.
Masher, any day now. Projects delivered, gated and in to support. Just writing up my documentation for the PIRB.
Nuttycow, I think for the price of a small mortgage it’s possible to hire a hack in the area. Or you could sit on the Vinster.
Soupy, nah, he’s not really a people person – not in that kind of quantity. Nice to see you though.
Sounds good to me! Please bring Sophie, too!
