good subtlety there Eth, doesn't quite work in text :wink:

I'm not exactly subtle anyway. Ask Laura. I tend to be quite forthright.

That is true. He is quite a frightening guy actually

Yeah I like that... in case you haven't noticed I'm not one to trifle with words either.

What is that nasty big brown thing? LOL

New potential at Hull. Sorry if he is married. Its just a complement.

The Brown thing is Cognac but he is an Oldenberge Bay. It is lovely and cuddly. He is a grade A showjumper and a very clever horsey indeed. Too clever. Most people say he is the kindest horse they have met LOL

Oh yer dam, I remember now. He looks better in the photo. I've changed my mind. He always was wondering about looking vacant drinking coffee. Mind changed.

lol, probably after he'd had to contend with an hour of me going "I'm sorry, are you actually qualified?"

What a kindred spirit! I love horses, too. I, too, am planning to join a polo club in the near future, just waiting for my budget to be normal. Its bloody expensive, though.

Ali-

Nice bunch of people there, perhaps. One thing that promptly caught my attention is the number of Asian students. Is the proportion of them too high, or is it just a co-incidence?

Yes it is really expensive. Down in Oxford it is £50 per hour for a polo lesson just with the university. I have never played polo, only done BSJA showjumping. For a top showjumper you can pay around £30 000-£200,000 but polo is constant cost all the time. I have never bought my own horse yet, my parents got me 2 good competition horses when I was 15 because I was showing promise at riding and people thought it would become my career. I have to get some good investments going for the next ones. Luckily, you can buy cheaper and bring them on once you've got experience and an eye for a good horse

Lol Laura, one of my Professors here came top in his year at the BCL in 1994 and won some prize... I asked him about it because I was considering applying and his email read "it starts out OK, then it almost murdered me"... ENJOY!

It certainly does hot up with the essays in the final term. As a consequence you should get as many Tutorials out of the way as possible before then, and also use the Easter break to write as many essays as you can. If not you could be facing up to 16 essays in a four/five week period, (up to 4 per subject). This will be on top of revision. Most of the essays however will have a revision focus and will be past exam questions.

It's certainly a course worth taking, and it will expand your mind. Don't be put of by any of this.

Thanks for the warning PDJM. Mind you, I was sorting of guessing it might end up this way. I cannot believe that a couple of my colleagues are out partying everynight and not attending many seminars. I have taken the opportunity to join a couple of sports clubs this term but I am nothing like as bad as some people.
