Geoff Billington demo

I've decided to go at the last minute provided the venue will let me get tickets on the door.
Has anyone been before and what did they think? I'm guessing he'll be quite entertaining but I'm hoping quite informative too.
I'd be interested to hear if anyone else has been before and what they thought.

Well I ended up going after all even though it was blowing a gale the whole night. It was a push to get there in time after work but I had a good night and it was very funny at times. Some of the jumps were impressively huge! The first horse he rode was gorgeous - I could definitely have pinched that one - although its flying changes were a bit exuberant (more like a rear and a buck!) and it was finding the weather conditions hammering on the roof of the indoor school interesting.

The second horse was a grade A that he was reschooling that had lost its confidance but it was still jumping massive jumps on short doglegs (3 strides!!) with no problems at all.
I couldn't stay for the 3rd horse unfortunately as it was getting late and I had to get home.
But its made me consider going to one of his clinics next time he comes after all.
