14.01.2022 Getting to know Pryde’s Easifeed Victorian High Performance Dressage Squad Members Hayley Gilbert What is the first place you will visit after isolation? No...osa would be amazing but we may just have to settle for a swimming pool for the kids What is your favourite drink? I love a good glass of Chardonnay and strong coffee in the morning Cats or Dogs? Miniature Dachshunds - they are like both cats and dogs combined What, aside from horses has kept you occupied during lockdown? I work full time as a Medical Rep for 3M, so lockdown has been really busy. Plus having a 3 year old and a 5 year old at home has been wonderful but also exhausting at the same time. However, I guess the best tings in life are never easy LOL If you had a ‘Theme Song’ what would it be?
