and had to share with you all. Although most people at the event thought i was insane for taking my horse XC for the first time i thought she behaved like a share.

I would also like to say a huge thankyou to H's mum for producing such a wonderful product - COLIGONE. the silly WB mare acts like such a stress head i thought id give her a dose before we set off - OMG its fabulous stuff, so thanks Kate, ill always have a bottle to hand (does it work on humans lol)

I had to take her in the 1st class of the day due to my prior arrangements for lunchtime, but not that that matters - she behaved like a star. although she backed off my leg at a few wierd looking jumps (her thoughts not mine) she went clear and happily trusted me that the jumps wouldnt eat her.

So only 1 pro shot and the groom left the camera in the car once again

so what do you think? unfortunately this was a horse eating jump.

Glad you had fun. I really wanted to pop up there but what with pre arranged hack and then my Nan's birthday party in the afternoon I didn't get chance. Good on you for getting out and about - no stopping you now!

sham eyou couldnt make it as it was a good day - turned out to be very busy. theyve got an open day next sunday if you fancy popping up with your boy? hows Mol doing?
Im off with Chant competing at Penistone show on Saturday then off more cross country training on Sunday! bless her she behaving like a saint (sill likes to pull faces through lol)
 
Can't make this weekend as away visiting relatives for most of the weekend. The showcross I mentioned is on 18th October apparently. Are you still having dressage lessons? Mol is fine - over her latest illness and is due to have a jumping lesson on 19th of this month. Cob is fine - still needs to lose weight though despite the hacking.
 
dont think ive got anything on on the 18th so will put it down in my diary - can you get me a schedule? or let me know what time is etc.
glad Mol is back on the work, cheeky monkey sounds so much like Ebi when she was her age - work shy lol. yes im having ldressage essons with Hannah Moody and shes seen how much a grot bag Chant can be - ive also started lessons with Becky Moody and Willow! now that is going to be fun.
you having lessons with Dawn or you going to Peters?
 
Can't wait for Willow update - how quick has that come around!
Jumping is with neither mentioned for a few different reasons...well Peter for the obvious reason that he has already seen me wimp out

need to get my act together before I see him again.

If you want some video done of Willow etc let me know and I will get OH on the case. I will get you a 'schedule' when I have one...I use this term loosely as you know what my yard is like, very laid back (but that's why I love it!).
