Captai Ginger, I have most experience of the Cottesmore, the Belvoir and the Fernie - none of which ar ein the least blue collar.

If anyone listened to the Radio Ballads on foxhunting, especially to the list of kit and how much it costs (£1000 jackets and £1200 boots, anyone?), I think they'd be hard-pressed to defend the majority of hunting as a working-class pursuit.
