When I read things such as
‘Take great care and treat all horses as a potential hazard; they can be unpredictable

Not my experience, although
Not my experience, although haven’t been that way since Decemeber. Used to get caught up by the M4 bit on the way back from the in laws but nothing like that for long while. Slow down a bit but not the stop start.
