When I joined this forum it was to get an understanding of all things diabetic. Never in my wildest dreams did I reckon on encountering the phrase "sticky bum jodpurs". In retrospect, I would have expected that sort of term to be posted by Ted @KARNAK but never you Barbara @rebrascora . 😱:D😛

No doubt it will be suitably "pithy".
Please excuse my lisp. 😳

Need to dig out my "sticky bum" jodhpurs!!.... and yes that is a technical term.... They impregnate the fabric on the bum and inner thighs with the same rubbery pimples as magic Gloves, to give you a better grip on the surface of the saddle!

Whoever invented those was a genius! (also known as 'silicone grip' jodhs in polite circles, but I'm not sure that’s really any better than ‘sticky bum') I definitely need mine when our instructor utters the dreaded words 'I think we should do some no-stirrup work today'!
 
I have clearly never moved in polite circles!! 😉 Only ever heard them referred to as "Sticky bum jodhs"... Never really gave it any thought until now that the term is being found amusing!
 
Taking Ted a long time to think up a suitable post in response.... is he going to rise to the challenge??
 
I hope my comments/observations on "sticky bum jodhs" aren't going to stir(r)up too much controversary. :D😱😳
 
I believe "sticky bum jodhs" are also known as "Klingons" :D Is this correct?

LOL @KARNAK I never knew you knew Boris - we are not worthy! 😛😱😳
 
Parent eve update ...... we had to abandon it due to technical issues NOT my fault as I initially thought and started taking screen shots of error messages 🙄 just in case it was me and I got into “trouble” and more importantly NOT schools fault 🙂 Seemed to be a provider fault not just to limited to our school. I managed 5 slots before it just shut down and wouldn’t play anymore. Oh technology!

Well...you learn something new every day :D
I'm glad Rebel is better and hope MeMe's hoof stays well. I can't imagine what Rascal looks like half clipped🙂! I like horses, they are beautiful animals but i don't think they like me much. When my girls were little, we used to take them to farms, sanctuaries etc and the older daughter used to make a bee line for the horses. They used to toss their heads about near me and didn't want me near but stayed as still as anything for her and let her stroke them. Even now, she lives opposite fields where horses are kept and if she goes for a walk, they come over to the fences, although she doesn't fuss them atm.

Hey Dez sticky bum jodhpurs is very common, I worked in a riding stable with the stable girls who all wore them,
the hardest thing I had to do was to help them peel them off in the tack room.😉

Ah pithy a great word with many meanings including the pith in certain citrus fruits.

Your lisp is excused just wish you would type quieter doing my head in, is it referenced to Terse or Laconic?
many other words apply either Synonym or Antonyms, have you learned enough about your D? you never
will but you can have a laugh whilst learning.

Get yourself a pair of sticky bum jodhpurs and wear them while riding you bike, just remember to allow 1/2 an
hour to get off if you want use the loo.😎
