Princess Anne In Hospital

[MargoTester]

After sustaining minor injuries and concussion. Perhaps someone could post a link for me

[naomi24]

Not that I know - but then Ive no idea what a zinger is.

That seems to be your go-to position more and more these days, naomi, is your memory failing?
Maybe try a tonic or vitamins.

I'll bet Anne did quite a lot of the heavy work where her horses were concerned, Davebro.  

I once saw her plant a tree.  None of this, "one spadeful of soil and job done" with that lady.  No, she fully backfilled the hole, then heeled it in properly.

I bet (and I hope) she'll be up and about in no time.

[naomi24]

Douglas, your problems are yours - not mine.  

[naomi24]

I wouldn't mind betting she still does, barmaid.  Horsey people just love it.

I think she was the first Royal to get her HGV licence to drive her horses to the various events round the country.

With Anne, Charles and Catherine out of action, Andrew on the Royal naughty step and Harry having a mega sulk I hope that Sophie is taking good care of Edward!

William's working.

Nice work if you can get it....

[naomi24]

I doubt you'd like it, Dave.  I certainly wouldn't.

dougie: What is a zinger? (I'm with Naomi on this).

[Prudie]

Are all the posts about the illnesses within the RF just to attract the repetitive anti-monarchists to throw their normal vanom. It would be better to know so anyone who might actually cares knows not to post on them.

I think a zinger is something you used to order from KFC, do they still do it?

[Togo]

Oh no ...  our Annie now. Glad to hear that it is minor injuries and that she will be OK. A spokesperson may well say that "the horse although in intensive care should make a full recovery."🐴

dearie me, doesn't anyone have internet access or the advanced skills to use it?

It's like in the Big Bang Theory - when Sheldon makes a joke he always says "BAZINGA!"

[jourdain2]

I'm sure she'll be back soon, I wish her very well.  To those who doubt that she gets her hands dirty when dealing with horses, I can only say that I have a niece, who also works with horses at quite a high level, who rates the Princess Royal very much indeed.  She 'mucks in' if necessary.

I'd give it a shot - but I would working towards redundancy.

I thought a zinger was a hot fruity drink, like a ginger and lemon zinger?

A zinger is used in fly fishing.
