This weekend I went to the Royal Windsor Horse Show, held on the private grounds of Windsor Castle. I know almost nothing about horses (usually large, four legs, long face) but thought it would be interesting.

I tramped through the mud, saw the Royal Signals White Helmets motorcycle display team, some kids on tiny ponies, people on large horses, and some nice food and drink stalls. Plus lots of Land Rovers (including some that used to belong to the Queen).

Oh yes, and the Queen was there. (But not in the Land Rovers.)

Ah..."time pony" is British for "someone forgot to proofread before he posted"!

Too bad -- I rather liked "time pony."
