Hi!
Just to introduce myself and the pingypony, Noffy :D
Some of you can probably guess who I am through my name ;) Haven't quite worked myself up to tables yet, could take a while ;)
Heres a bit of info and a few photos on Noffy, hope you like them! :)
Noffys a 14.2 jumping machine - isnt too keen on the stressage, prefers spooking at flowers and leaping on dressage judges very shiny cars ;)
This season I've competed him at pony trials and had a fantastic time! His favourite phase is the xc of course and he also loves sj - which is great because I am a complete wimp in the sj arena! :eek::rolleyes:
We were lucky enough to be invited to the championships at Brand Hall this year, where Noffy put up a dressage performance even more interesting than usual by jumping on the car AND knocking over two of the arena markers and white boards! :eek:
2012 is my last year in ponies, so working hard over the winter to improve the stressage and fingers crossed we'll come out guns blazing in march!
Not going to write any more, because everyone prefers photos anyway! ;)

I am more scared that its your last year in ponies:eek: having followed your progress since your first days eventing on Roly via your mothers updates.

I have all my fingers and toes crossed that all your hard work and dedication all pay off this year.

Ditto :eek:. And stick to the wellies and stay off the tables until you're old like us! ;)

Welly dancing is sooo much more refined than clambering about on tables ;). I can't see the photos (because of the permission level?) but as you're pretty famous I've seen pics of Noffy elsewhere and he's luvverly.
Very best of luck for your last year in ponies :).

Oh God... It's true then - there is no privacy left in my life :( Welcome to the forum WD and I second the command to stay off the tables, that's your mother's place :D

I'll try and unset the stringent privacy levels I set on all her FB stuff so that everyone can drool over the edible Noffy :)

Great to hear from you and I hope you will be keeping us updated through your 2012 season with lots of reports and photos? :D I'm sure you have a spare pair of hands somewhere in the team who can take photos! ;) Very best of luck for 2012, Noffy sounds and looks a real dude although I did

at your description of his attitude towards dressage, I'm sure you've been working hard over winter and he'll come out with a reformed attitude to it all. :)

Thanks everyone :D

It is really scary that this is my last year in ponies! :eek:

Sorry the link doesn't work, I'll check my privacy settings now and then it should be alright! :eek::)

I will hopefully do some reports for the 2012 trials, so watch this space! :D

welly dancing is so much easier than trying to get on tables, I agree! ;):D

Hello! I am another quite scared that you only have one year left in ponies :eek: Did you win the battle of the Butet - I rather felt after Monmouth you should have done....but I suspect you did not?!

Oh wellydancer, have you finally been liberated from under the Table?! ;)

Welcome: and may there be many WinningWellyDances this year :D. I've yearned after Noffy for some time, be thankful I didn't find his stable at Brand Hall (I had a space on the lorry.....) - the thought of trying to find a grown-up-sized version must be terrifying!!

Wishing you all the very best luck in 2012 for PoncyPonies :D

Yep, another Noffy and WellyDancer fan. :) Welcome to the forum and I'll look forward to lots of reports starting with Oasby I guess? Got any JAS planned?

Edited to add: I think I must have a fake Butet as mine doesn't make me do good dressage. :p :(

Thanks BD :D yep, oasby! And then back down your way for Lincoln the weekend after :D;) Yes, I think we're doing at least one of the JAS Hartpurys! :eek: I find JAS completely terrifying, but Noff loves it - motorbiking around corners at 100mph entertaining his audiences, who of course have only come to the JAS to see him... ;)
