Well a bit of a mixed day really.
Entered for the 1.05 and newcomers. Got on a bit later that I should have and people were hogging the fences and kept putting them up too quickly so I was already strssed that I wasn't going to get to jump before my round. Anyway, I was coming round on a circle on the left rein and another lady was cantering round towards me (on the opposite rein from everyone else which she always seems to do) so I thought "left hand to left hand so I'd better move over" but she kept coming probably thinking I was being rude and rode straight into my leg which really hurt.
She could easily have moved over a few inches as she had plenty room ( I noticed that her light coloured horse now had a black mark on his bum presumably off my boots which shows what a forse she rode into me). I burst into floods of tears and managed to jump a few fences as it was my turn to go in, I was also freaking out as mum hadn't got the video camera from the van. The lady at the door said I could have a bit longer as I was still crying but I went in anyway.
Monster pony jumped fab until the water tray which was under an oxer off a bit of a turn and decided to run out: I smacked him and he jumped round the rest of the course brill. On the bright side it meant I could have some time to calm down and he wouldn't get anymore notional for that class.
Got on for newcomers, he was being a bit strong in the warm up, but this time I got on far too early and I was worried I would overcook him. Went in for newcomers and muppet horse practically fell over the first fence so I thought " oh god this is going to be awful" but no he had to go and fly round the rest like it was a BN. Got ready to roar at him over the water tray this time but he didn't look at it! Only 2 made it into the jump off (one person retired and the other had 3 down) so was mega annoyed at him for tripping over the first little upright but at the dame time pleased with how he jumped the rest, he certainly doen't find the height difficult.
Still came third and as the day was sponsered still got prize money, a creme egg easter egg (which I've already eater half of) and a rosette the size of a dinner plate! So all on all not too bad a day
Have a look at newcomers video and keats forgetting to jump over the first!

You've got me worried now, maybe I should try and email them a special ticket number...?!
