In the summer of 1748, riding became Grand Duchess Catherine (Empress Catherine II) of Russia's dominant passion. She was forbidden to ride astride. Empress Elizabeth of Russia believed that this produced barreness in women.

^ Well, Charles doesn't actually like shooting, any more. He used to shoot a lot. However, in recent years he seems to have virtually given up, in favour of fishing and long walks instead. Whether it's environmental, a new sentimentality about causing death to fellow creatures, his own aches in back and shoulders that might make an all day shoot painful, or he's simply lost interest, Charles leaves that to his sons these days.

Yes, George VI was a keen shot, as was his brother Henry and father and grandfather. King George V was regarded as one of the finest shots in England. George VI spent the last full day of his life in pursuit of rabbits at Sandringham.

King Edward VII of Great Britain played croquet. He and his partner usually won at croquet as everyone knew how cross Edward got if he was beaten.
