Had a massive post planned but am zonked as you will see.

In short-
Went to Buittle for two days' riding

Arrived friday afternoon- got pissed.

Got up at sparrowfart saturday- mucked out, ate breakfast, spent six hours in the saddle on three different horses (dozy donkey, second best gelding and best gelding) to learn the diferences between the mounts

probably picking the wrong side for a gentleman but your boots do seem rather Cromwellian ironsides.

Suitable for both C16th and C17th so in a way you are correct.

It's in proportion to the rest of you. Stop obsessing.
