The horse show at the RDS

My missus is realising a life long ambition by heading up to this tomorrow with one of the kids,

It was one of the highlights of summer as a kid, Eddie Macken was a God

That one where they all tried to jump over an ever increasing wall was unreal TV, do they still make them do that?

[backinatracksuit]

The puissance, they do indeed,
It was great fun when you were playing show jumping over galvanized and milk crates in the garden trying to find ways to make that wall bigger

Saturday absolutely unreal drinking session.

You’d pay as much, if not more for a top show jumper compared to a top race horse.

Much more at the top end.

Who’s funding the fella of the O’Sheas?

American chap from Florida. Beautiful place. He was in a jump off in New York a few months back against Bruce Springsteen’s daughter and bill gates daughter. Should get qualified for olympics this time. An incredible life.

Nope he’s supremely talented. He’s like ap or ruby or Ryan Moore. He is paid a retainer to ride his horses.

Did you ever fall and bang your head?

[backinatracksuit]

Not while showjumping mate, I wasn’t able to jump that high

its going to be A difficult week for all my gang as it’s two years on from one of our good friends death. He fell asleep driving home from the show in 2017. Last year a lot of us skipped it but everyone is making the effort to attend this year.

My mates lil sis went clear in the first round in the Grand Prix today. Very emotional stuff for the friends and family.

That was a very very poor comment from a poster who appears to be having an episode. When he comes around Im sure he will be disappointed with himself

[anon32894817]

On another note why are the pubs opposite the rds so shit?

[the_man_himself]

You need a bit of edge to a place for it to be a good pub. Heaslip and a few other rugby lads own a pub near there don’t they?

I’d be surprised if he hasn’t contacted applecrumbled via PM to apologise. As bad a comment as I’ve seen on here.

[gilgamboa]

The same fella would be hopping up and down with indignance if someone else said it
