Sick as a parrot

[breeches]

As some may know, i like to ride nice and early, to avoid flies, traffic, the heat, children and the local Paperatzi (you know who you are) so its a lonely old ride most days, please dont feel sorry for me tho, there are often pidgeons and deer about to take my mind off the lonliness.

Anyway thats nothing to do with anything,,,,,,,,,,i was wondering if any of you ever get horse sick. I mean like travel sick. I am in the motor trade, not a good trade to be in if you cannot be a passenger in a car without feeling you are going to Hurl any moment, luckily i dont sell cars anymore , so test drives are a rare thing.

So the question is, Do you ever feel sick when you ride, i do sometimes, i get a little hot and start to feel one coming on.......thats not right is it?

If you do, how do you prevent it....?

I wait in anticipation of the cheekyness (you also know who you are)

[Haphazard]

Only time i ever feel sick on horseback is in the start box of the XC phase, nothing to do with motion just nerves :D

[teabiscuit]

have you got something to tell us breeches?
are you...preggers?
morning sickness?

[Belle1]

Only once......when drunk in charge of a horse in my younger more irresponsible days :o
Was fine walking and trotting but canter made me feel decidedly sea sick......

[teabiscuit]

i must confess, i've never felt sick on horseback

[Tots N Dots]

if you are getting hot flushes it may be a mid life crisis heading your way, :D but I have to ask why is your parrot ill? I didnt know you had a parrot and a horse :D

[domane]

and the local Paperatzi (you know who you are)

.... *whistles innocently* Who, me??

(And Gary - your spelling really is atrocious!!!)

....perhaps you have altitude sickness.... I understand the air is thinner all the way up on a 16.2hh???? :p

Or maybe it's your body telling you NOT TO RIDE SO GODDAM EARLY!!!!

[amandal]

Only when very hungover - best cure a canter around, and after Ziz has tanked off, but that's more shaking than nausea - relief still being alive :rolleyes:

Hmmm - I've just been back to the "what looks best..." thread and I see I have to apologise as you are right.

Still it's funny how you always seem to be involved though;)

I know what you're thinking - who rattled my cage :D :D
Anyway 'cheekyness' should have an 'i' after the 'k' and since 'collins' is a proper noun it should be a capital 'C'!!!!

that reminds me of an interview I heard with Catherine Tate (the "am I bovvered" lady). She said she'd had lots of letters from people complaining about her sketch about ginger people - her comment was "they've all got too much time on their pale, freckly hands".:D :D :D

Before I get lots of complaints - I've nothing against gingers - my dog is one;)

[teabiscuit]

peppermint tea is good for nausea
have it served on horseback-quite refined dontchano

[fitz]

Put stabilisers on Rosie...

[Whatanejit]

I suffer really, really badly from motion sickness.

In fact when I was a sales rep in a previous life I even got sick driving the car - usually it is when you are a passenger.

Anyway, I have never been sick on a horse.

I think there is a possibility that you are either dehydrated or hypoglycaemic (havn't had your breakfast).

no your right, no pause just straight to sleep :rolleyes: anyway lay off ginger's, I am a vague one and my eldest is definitely a ginger!

by the way what is STB??? :p

[NoviceNic]

I used to get horse sick all the time. Especially when I first owned Captain. Now I just get sick when I am going to local shows or doing something for the first time. The only thing that helps me is I practise more. The more I do a new challenge the less sick I feel. Making sure I dont stop or the sickness will come back. :o

[breeches]

by the way what is STB??? :p
