Bah, horses. Grumpy smelly animals. Why ride when you can walk?

wow.
I have no idea what ur talking about sent.
Here in Canada, healthcare is free so there is no need for health insurance. Maybe his barn wants insurance in case he breaks tack or hurts the horse?

In the UK we have the best national health service in the world, but you still need insurance for most things.

I rode english, because i was in england i guess.

No way, we like to THINK we have the best health service in the world but we dont. Canada's is way better.

My Auntie who lived in Canada thought their health service was really bad. But anyway, the NHS is much much worse, when they graded the hospital nearest to me it didn't even get one star out of 5.

i liked their health service. nice and clean, no people waiting in corridors. only downside was most of the doctors spoke french. (i know this is more hospital than anything else) however, the english hospitals i have been in always have people wandering around, are dirty and parts are closed for repair so you have to take a long round about way.

Sure, let me just ask Bush if he wants to take over running the UK...


Insurance is needed for the horses and for their equipment. It's also required for riding centres to pay up if anything goes wrong with the people riding there. It's all very complicated.

Eh? They mismanaged it to the brink of economic collapse, encouraged Casteist violence, Counquered, Raped and pillaged for 200 years, And gave up only after being bombed to $hit in WWII, with their back to one of the worse humanitarian crisises in history.

Not a good track record...

I ride all the time. I plan on showing in the Hookstown fair Next summer with my Paint Gelding. Is an Andalusian Mare a draft horse? I have heard of it but can't say what it is.
