I'm going to start this off by saying, I have no horse transport. Because of this, I'd always considered myself very lucky when I do manage to get a lift somewhere, and chose my current yard partly because it is in hacking distance of venues.
Now I was very much hoping to get out for our first BE event this year, however struggled to find a lift. So I decided to try and hire a box, as I had been given some recommendations. I got quite excited when they told me that the date was free, and I had visions of us finally being able to do things off our own back occasionally!
Then, crisis. Turns out that since I am only 22, I can't hire after all. No point even asking my parents, as there's no way they'll give up a day to drive me (or I might have convinced them of a tow bar by now).
So am feeling a bit deflated. Looks like there may be no eventing for us after all!!!
Oh well, at least we will be SJ/DR pros by the time we ever make it out... :S
