How Muddy Are You? – The Winners
Back in April we launched a competition to replace some of our How Muddy Are You? quiz questions with ones suggested by our members. We had lots of brilliant entries and strangely enough more than one person suggested our favourites so we’ve had to award more prizes than we first planned to.
First prize winner
The first prize winner is Emma, who has won a year’s free subscription to Muddy Matches for her roadkill question. A special prize of 1 month also goes to Paul, who suggested a similar question.
If we’re honest, we did call the authorities to check that it is legal to eat roadkill and if the commonly held belief that “if the person in front of you hit it, you can eat it” is true. The police informed us that you are not breaking the law by removing a dead rabbit from the road, but “you must be wary of your own safety”. If you hit a pet or a deer you must report it to the police!
So, back to the point, Emma’s winning question is as follows…
You accidentally run over a rabbit in your car. Do you:
- Check that it’s dead.
- Have it for dinner.
- Phone the vet.
- Drive on in tears. › Continue reading

The Equestrian Dating Competition Winner is…
After a lot of deliberation, we are pleased to announce that the winner of our equestrian dating competition is Rory from Kent, who has been awarded a month’s free subscription to Muddy Matches.
Here’s what Rory said in response to our questions:
Are you a horse lover yourself or have you dated an equestrian?
Yes and Yes.
What are the best and worst things about dating equestrian singles?
- Being out in the fresh air and lovely countryside with a girl who adores you nearly as much as her horse!
- Arriving on time to pick up your girlfriend, only to find out that she’s decided to muck out her horse – in her party dress!
- Enjoying the excitement of seeing your girlfriend win a competition that she and her horse have worked months towards.
- Getting to know the UK much better, by travelling miles to shows, gymkhanas, events and tack sales.
- Sharing a nice bottle of wine in a nice hot bath together after a good day’s hunting.
- Having a happy horse explain to you why your girlfriend blew last month’s grocery money at Scats!
What are your top 3 tips for dating an equestrian?
- Never make the mistake of trying to position a relationship in between your girlfriend and her beloved horse!
- Always appear to know less about horsemanship than your girlfriend does, even if you may actually know more!
- On pain of death/even when joking, never mention that your girlfriend’s horse might look good wearing her Jodhpurs!
If you’d like to get in touch with Rory, you can view his profile by clicking on his name. You will need to be a member to view his profile. If you are not a member, sign up for free today.
