I've never seen anyone spit at a Polo match, nor an Event, Dressage and perish the thought - Out Hunting - simply not done!
Thats because its bursts of intense aerobic exercise that creates lots of mucus, which you don't do riding a horse. I can only assume everybody complaining has never played football, rugby etc, as you simply have to spit sometimes otherwise you would soon have a mouthful of very unpleasant stuff. The only other option is to swallow it, which doesnt really help as it just comes back again. As for spitting more generally, much like anything, its got everything to do with the individual, and naff all to do with class and ethnic origin.
No but I swallowed a big black fly that was hovering in front of me. I eventually had to take a breath and down it went. And yes, gentle reader, I spat - lot. But it was too late . <green emoji>

Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.

Perhaps you could give one to wild edges in recognition of the most disgusting verbal image on the thread.
