A silly & boring reminiscing post

[Bossanova]

But today I have owned Moon for precisely 2 years

I bought her on the day of her first intro (we were eliminated 3 times though 2 were actually my errors!)

1 year later she did her first 1*

And this year she's sat out in a field on holiday

But she did do 3 intermediates very sucessfully last month!!

 

[AutumnRose]

That is such a great picture of you guys down the step!!

 

[Halfstep]

Happy anniversary!! She's certainly turned out well and is a credit to you.

It is indeed possible

She should have gone 2* this month but I cant fit it in around new job.
Yep, thats Wilton, it was her first I

Not a silly or boring post! Cant believe you have only had her 2 years, she has progressed so much

 

[siennamum]

She's an absolute credit to you, how exciting to think where she'll be this time next year!!

 

[ElleJS]

You have done such a fab job with her, massive pat on the back!

She looks amazing

Good thankyou- blooming hard work but I have a pretty light timetable so plenty of time to waste during the day.
Hows yours going?

 

[Thistle]

Bless her!

It's a year tomorrow that we have had Flossy big ears.

Not silly or boring!! Moon is such a fab little horse!! She is a credit to you - in fact all your horses are!

 

[Rosiefan]

Happy 2nd anniversary - you're doing a great job with her and long may it continue

 

[SpottedCat]

She's so cool, you've done really well with her.

 

[Gamebird]

Fab job she looks brill! Isn't it great to see them progress like that

She's on the same timeframe as my big horse by the sounds of things - he's done intro to intermediate in 2 years (via 1 star) and is 7 this time. It's perfectly sensible with a trainable horse!

 

[Worried1]

It's OK - Also got a very light timetable but unlike my old school the internet access is restricted so no facebook or photobucket for me

can still get on here though

I just want to be at home though

 

[ColouredFan]

Happy anniversary, You and Moon have done so well together

I can imagine home is very tempting for you now- are all the horses in?
We get a very long lunch time so I get a mid-day pony fix

[Hattikins]

Awesome piccies Boss!!

She's an absolutely fantastic horse and you've got so much out of her!

She's so exciting!!

Really well done for everything you've done with her already and Good luck with her for the future

 

[LauraBR]

I remember your very first posts about her. Wasn't she a project to sell on originally?

You have done an incredible job with her!

The only thing that worries me is where next?? I will need a year to have my horse properly consolidated at Intermediate (by which I mean happy to ride it round any Int in the country, big or small, and hopefully moving a bit closer to being placed). He may have an Advanced run in him but I do not truely believe that he is an Advanced horse and I'm sure he won't be a 3*/4* one.

Does this mean he'll spend what could theoretically (and with a following wind) be the next 10 years of his life competing at I/OI/AI/**? And if so could that get a bit dull??? Just a thought, and I have to say your mare looks to have a bit more scope than my horse. She's certainly a better 'type' for the job

 

[seabiscuit]

You have done a super job with her!! Your sis was telling me all about her today, I was like 'yes, yes, I know all about her already !! " PMSL!!

I do think she'll go advanced so long as we both keep our confidence and trust in each other.
Otherwise, I plan to have tonnes of fun finding intermediate easy, doing a few 2*s, winning some money BSJA and then she can have babies!

Lol! My sister regrets allowing me to have Moon. Her loss though as she didnt spot her potential as a baby!
If you work with Sam at all then tell her you used to have a Kensons Aragorn horse as she still has Rizzle who's by him and would be thrilled. She'll probs try to get you to ride him.....

 

[Gamebird]

Ah babies - unfortunately I don't have that option! (well the horse doesn't anyway

)
