All day I have had this awful nervous/excited/sick feeling!

How can I make it go away??? and how do I sleep properly tonight..I guess I dont and just sleep when I get home

 

[Spyda]

best of luck! mine is on bank holiday monday!
i put all my energies into getting ready and then forget about being nervous. Also, i've shown so often that I don't really get nervous anymore. That is, until I see my arch rival's horse box turning up!

 

[ever_hopeful]

I know how you feel. I'm horrible prep'ing for a show. And even worse until it's all over. I enjoy myself - it's my show assistants that get all the flack. A truly thankless job for them. The masochists!!

 

[katie_southwest]

Haha oh no I couldnt cope with having rivals...the pressure would be too much

Hopefully ponio will behave and not make me look like a complete plonker

Good luck!! our first show of the year tomorrow! I'm sure we'll be last - it's only local but it's soooooo competitive!! some people just take it too seriously!

 

[faulkner]

yes I know what you mean. Especially if it's a qualifier! On my circuit, there seems to be a separate competition amoungst competitors about who can qualify for various shows first!
