Share 5 random facts about yourself and then pass it on to 10 followers!

I hate thinking of facts about my self omg.

I'm scared of Chickens, I don't even know why.

I injure myself in the stupidest ways.

I'm really shy when I met someone new for the first time but then I turn into a complete spaztic.

I had a ton of fish once and all their names were Bob.

When my ankle plays up I get almost depressed. Fun times!

That was a really depressing last fact o.e

rustbreeches replied to your post: Anyone had any experience with the Grand Prix show...

I’ve had two. I really like them; they’re my favorites. They’re comfortable and durable and clean up well. They’re cut a little broader in the shoulder than other brands like RJ which is great for people like me with wider shoulders

They look really flattering! I have broader shoulders so that actually would be nice. I'm looking at the Classic Sport Soft Shell Show Coat in Tech Lite Fabric. Thanks for your help!

idk I definitely know more than one horse that can’t jump 3’

sure, I do too, we've taken and rebred the domestic horse to something awful in some cases. However should the need arise, I'm sure they could jump and get themselves out of the situation, barring age/physical limitations. Height is NOT a factor in that ability though.
