Reagan went out horseback riding with The Queen a few times.
Sister was on a horse when a stallion charged into the yard and kicked the horse she was on. The kick landed in the chest, in front of her leg. And if it would have hit her, it would have broken her leg.......
I think there are a number of Freepers who are close to or in their 70s who would not stop riding just for fear of an injury.
If it’s in your blood, it’s in it.
or choose to live your life with gusto i appluade her john force too
Scarlett O’Hara’s father and daughter both died from accidents while riding horses. Of course they were fictitious characters in a novel.
I can’t help but find the Royal Family absolutely. ridiculous.
If that’s the way they want to go out then God bless them. It’s better than dying in bed.
My daughter has 16 horses and 45 students. Yes, it’s in her blood since she was about 7 yrs old. She gets hurt and she gets back on ASAP. It makes you tough.
The most amazing woman in the Kingdom...after Liz and mum.
I think the Queen rode until she was in her 90s. I think she had a dead broke, bomb proof native pony.
LOL!
I remember her riding in her ‘babushka’ headscarf.
No helmet for the Queen :-)
Most of the people I’ve heard of who ‘went out’ on horseback were relatively young...
WTH has happened to FREEPERS???
We fought two wars against the corrupt “royal family”. If the current day Brits were smart they would kick all of those undesirables to the curb.
It would be funnier if
Jack fell down
and broke his crown
Queen Elizabeth 2 was still riding horses until her death at age 96. She & Princess Anne are/were tough ladies. She was also an Army vehicle mechanic in WW2- working on engines, replacing brakes & changing out damaged parts. She was also a devout Christian. She was a good lady. God rest her soul! Im glad shes back with her husband of 75 years again. I wonder if Hillary or Pelosi or AOC would be willing to do similar- get their hands & faces filthy-greasy & help out the war effort & the people of their nation. My guess is..... probably not! 🫣
Amen.
I admire her amazing sense of duty and willingness to work hard to fulfill it. She is certainly her mother’s daughter.
Don’t worry - it’s not your country.
The Brits seem to be happy with their system; and when they are not, as ERII once said, the royals will fold their tents and slip away.
I wouldn’t waste your time waiting, though.
(And you’re wasting your time here, apparently objecting that those of us who respect our greatest ally want to give our best wishes to them and their royals.)
