An FLO? guess it's not a good thing I know that! We've had "the knock"

Yes, I am an FLO ... but do that job alongside dealing with my own investigations .... I don't act as FLO for the jobs I am managing as it causes complications - and a totally screwed up head !

I used to work with horses but not for a living. I studied Natural Horsemanship and 'worked' at private stables: One stable of 14 American Quarter Horses  :notworthy: and the other private stable with 3 Endurance Event Arab Horses and one very frisky Arab youngster (from 6 months to 2 years old) who I had a heck of a job convincing that I wasn't a horse! I have a wonderful story about just how clever that horse was but it's very long and very off-topic.

So how do you compete horses, Tara? Trainer? Rider?

Yeh I bet. Your a brave guy mate. A screwed up head is not the best. We've got a restraining order against our flo after he was trying to be a bit more of a shoulder to cry on to the widow. Crazy lol. I know they're not all like that though ;)

OMG  :surprised: No, they are not normally like that !   It is sometimes very rewarding if you can ease a families pain  .... but not supposed to be that rewarding  !!

Another Civil Engineer to add to the tally. I design road maintenance schemes for the motorways in the northwest of England. So yes I am the one responsible for all those cones on the motorway. :grin:
