Flossy is well known to many on the British Dressage Forum as a teller of interesting stories and perhaps the odd joke or two. We have selected a few tales for your pleasure.

Divas and Husbands

Divas and Husbands
 Dressage Husband returned from   a  ” Dressage Husband  Anonymous”  support meeting. 
He summoned his Dressage Diva to the  kitchen   and in an un usual authoritatively   manner  to him , addressed her.
“Daaaarrrrlinnnnnng  do you remember   the first morning  after our honey moon  when you told me that   having a husband or NOT   having a  husband  , your dressage   Career   is not going  to be jeopardised  by the institute of marriage,  you said very clearly that  the horses  and stables  come first, looking after  house, washing and cooking  only  if and when  time permits,  you are going to continue with your regular visits to  your trainer who is a fountain of all knowledge  including dressage,  go to shows as often  as  you want  ,  not going to give up your mates from the dressage world  which  most of them   are young beautiful  and gay  ,MY  office parties and client entertaining  only with  a take away meals  and strictly  on self service  basis .
All the money that you earn will be spent on the horses and all the money that I earn will also be spent on the horses,  Children and ambition seldom go together so  forget  any idea of  starting a family  before    I     do my first GP “  (and we all know it may not be  during this life time).
Dressage Husband continued   “And do you remember that I have not uttered a word , I agreed with every thing  you said   because    deep  down I know that the recipe  for happy marriage  to a Dressage Diva  is the principle of give and  give more,  but I would like to add  to it  that  in order to cement our relationship   ,  FROM   now on  every week end   in this house there will be  Love , Affection  and SEX  (lot of it)   WITH you  here or with out YOU  here  Daaaarrrrlinnnnnng”
