Round about that time last year I decided to stop colouring my hair to see what it really looks like and decided that I am quite comfortable with it! The reddish tint in the pictures is dust! Horses that are even just slightly off are spun immediately and blood and urine samples are taken randomly with dire consequenses if your horse tests positively for prohibited substances!Lieslhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07023486172214638042noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8009983363963050374.post-64758309743706065882011-01-25T10:35:36.163-08:002011-01-25T10:35:36.163-08:00P.S.

I'm really glad all those vet checks are in place to keep horses (and riders) safe. :)<br /><br />And it's so good to finally get to see YOU!!! What a cutie! You look 'petite' and I love the no-nonsense pixie cut you wear your hair in - me too!!! So, I have to ask because it's hard to see in pictures, is your hair blonde or grey? Mine is mostly brunette with lovely frosts of grey coming in (which I'm very proud of because I've earned them!) <br /><br />Wonderful post and PERFECT picture of you, Cules and Ghost at the finish. And shame on that little Minki! Stealing lunches! :)TexWisGirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15510099344729038541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8009983363963050374.post-55635934551096973982011-01-25T10:07:26.008-08:002011-01-25T10:07:26.008-08:00To say that I'm impressed is an understatement...To say that I'm impressed is an understatement.
