Rant!!!!!!

We went ridin`!  Loaded and packed up, we headed for the Forest of Ae.  Neednt have bothered. The forest tracks were covered in a thick layer of ice!  Couldnt even get out of the trailer park!  So we did some boring ol` road work for an hour, then went home.  Thats it I`m afraid, no pics no nothin`! Try again next time, maybe go somewhere else. Trouble is the cost od diesel is soaring, its at £1:31p per litre here, god knows what it will be in another few weeks! 

Let me see?……….Thats about £5:50p a gallon, or $8:50c? Yep thats about right. Its to rise again tomorrow, and then where?  Gettin` really sick of this country and the politicians, none seem to have a bloody clue!

  1. Oh, bummmer! Hate when you're all dressed up with no place to go!!

    Diesel here is outrageous again, too. It is up to $3.30 a gallon. Gas is right around $3. We were talking yesterday that when we bought our diesel truck in the year 2001, diesel was .99 cents a gallon. What the heck happened??

  2. Maybe it's time to move to Canada!
    When I can only do roadwork, I use the opportunity to work on my lateral aids, vertical aids and impulsion. Any ride is a good ride!

  3. Petrol has jumped up here, too. To quote Hunter Thompson: Where will it all end?

  4. I feel your frustrations! Were your horses calm, though? I've had one loopy session in the school, but very well behaved today on the road. Loads of my friends are saying their horses have been really naughty!

  6. And the worst of it is we get paid the same and everything keeps going up. I live in one of the most energy rich areas in the world. You would think we would get a break--Nope.
    Hang in there most days got to be better than your last one.

  8. The cost of diesel is rising here too and the darn ice is preventing riding so guess I'm on the same rant as you.
