Houghton BYEH & CT - Baydale has a Bit of a Drama

Well done Jupiter, such a shame that "Mummy"
tongue.gif
is such a perfectionist she saw fit to starve you for not winning
mad.gif
tongue.gif
grin.gif


So glad that the Obese Show Pony is back and still trying so hard to please
laugh.gif
He clearly likes his fuller figure, all the Show Jumpers have them, don't you know
tongue.gif
smirk.gif


Stick Hector on the wagon, I'll pick him up at Brigstock
grin.gif
grin.gif
I promise a never ending supply of Polos (Henry will testify to this) and I also promise to let you shout orders at me, what could be better than that!!??
grin.gif
grin.gif
 
TD - oh I'm not worthy, trust me. Burghley? I don't think J is quite ready for 4 star yet.
smirk.gif
Hector is but just not the xc bit, he said that's soooo last season.
wink.gif


Rafferoo - I might have to buy a photo of Handsome Hector if they're good ones.

Obese T_H, how dare you? He's got big bones that's all, and he hardly eats anything
wink.gif
- his indifference when we took J off the lorry at the vets was hilarious, barely a backward glance and then carried on stuffing his face with haylage. I know I can shout loudly but from Lincs to the South West might be beyond me, don't you think?

I'll just have to move home

I'm sure my Parents would be thrilled

Did I say Obese, sorry I ment Svelte Shiny Show JUMPING Pony

Believe it or not, I am catching up with this in my 'lunch break' (thank you NHS work directive
mad.gif
) so I'll take that fruit salad - Hector sounds very happy to be out and about! Is he trying to tell you something, Baydale?!
tongue.gif
 
Lunch, kit? Are you in a different time zone there or something?
confused.gif
The fruit salad is now ex-fruit salad but I can offer you a Jordans cranberry Frusli bar? What is Hector trying to tell me do you think?
crazy.gif


CF - I'm sure J will have been muchly excited by the bran mash for brunch; he'll be positively ecstatic to get alfa a at teatime, bless.
smile.gif
 
Well done, glad to hear Jupiter recovering well!!
Kerilli were you there today??? I saw WFP!! and i may go and hide if you saw my round!!
 
Perhaps Hector thinks if he really pulls out the stops in the first 2 phases, Mummy will let him do the 3rd.. Fruesli sounding good to me, some prat has pinched my sandwich from the doctors' mess so I've had half a tub of neat houmous, some dry branflakes and not much else..
mad.gif
 
I did have that in mind Kit but we'll see what he's like when I go xc schooling next week.
crazy.gif
Bran flakes and houmous? Remind me to be busy when you invite me round for dinner.
tongue.gif
 
I'm confused
confused.gif
call me dumb "everybody does!"
tongue.gif
smirk.gif
but if H is jumping showjumps, how come he's not allowed to go xc? Apart from that, well done you, no need for the air bag just yet
wink.gif
grin.gif
Do we get pictures yet?
 
wizozdumb
wink.gif
- it was just combined training, thought I'd take him to keep Jup company and see whether he was worried about it all as it was his first outing after the Isleham crash. He's allowed to go xc but I've not done any yet - I'm hoping it's whet his appetite and he'll haul me round Lt Downham.
laugh.gif
 
One day you'll come and do a post saying "well we did the dressage was ok, did the sj, was ok, did the xc, was ok, got on the lorry and came on" - always a drama with you isn't there?
tongue.gif
grin.gif


Big pats to Hector pony (everything is pony in my book whether it is one or not) and hope J's ok
grin.gif


When are you going to come vaguely south so some of us southerners can see the Baydale clan in action?
grin.gif
 
Wow that's wicked, I must have missed that bit of news, i'm really pleased for you
laugh.gif

He'll be amazing too, you watch
wink.gif
But I think you should try harder to get in the 30's in the dressage there
tongue.gif
Sharon Hunt, who's she?
smirk.gif
 
teapot - I'd love it to be that boring a day but it just never seems to pan out like that. I'll try again this weekend, promise.
crazy.gif
I'm a bit centred on "oop north" at the moment but might have to travel further later in the season, Barbury is tempting me in July.

wizoz - have you not been paying attention?
tongue.gif
But at one days 30 is not THAT special *Baydale ducks the side-swipes*
wink.gif
, would have to be sub-30 to compare with yesterday. Competitive? Oh yes I am!
laugh.gif

Am just messing - hectic is far more fun, that's what Eventing's all about isn't it?
wink.gif
grin.gif


Ooo Barbury - am trying to persuade my eventy friend to go as it's meant to be a really nice event isn't it? Plus she likes doing ones she's never done before (shall keep prodding her
wink.gif
)
 
I'm not AGAINST patting!
tongue.gif
Anyway, it sounds like he deserved it.

So congratulations - and pats - all around.

Now, as Hector's officially designated internet-based agent, I will be taking sealed bids. The winner will be announced when, well, Baydale say's it's worth it.
smile.gif
 
What a fab report bar the colic episode. Hope his belly is rumble free soon.
Well you must be pleased with how H was feeling, all positive!

Well I went to pick up a project today 2.5 hr trip. Which after travelling 30mile was no further in that time.
Car crash & police sending everyone round the narrow back lanes, plus 10 school buses with pupils for GCSE's, artic's & tankers going both ways!.
mad.gif

The main road had opened before we moved again! So spun round & went back!
Luckily once we arrived, homeward journey was much less eventfull!

Anyway enough hijacking!

Well done & a pat on the back for you & H & a gentle hug for J.
 
So glad Jupiter is ok, what a scare but what a good pony
grin.gif

Please come ride Saf in the dressage with scores like that on Hector, super well done
grin.gif
 
Crikey! I have just caught up with all this drama!! God damn full time jobs
mad.gif
Glad to hear you all got home safely and Jup's is recovering. Bless him I guess the little chap just got a bit excited/stressed about his big debut. Great result for his first time out and another blinder with Hector. Now if you could just go out and compete without drawing attention to yourself.....
wink.gif


If you are going XC schooling one eve then please let me know
grin.gif
 
teapot - I like calculated and planned hectic, not headless chicken hectic.
crazy.gif


TS - I didn't pat him so hard I deafened him, or is that an urban legend that you can do that (you're bound to know
wink.gif
)?

My horses are entertaining shortstuff99, it makes up for the lack of nights out and a "normal" social life.
smirk.gif


k9h, I hope my trip up the A1 to Hambleton Show is less eventful on Sunday.

Fiona/jules, do you think I might have another attention-seeking pony on my hands, along with HH the Headbanger and Hector the Malingerer? NuttersRUs.
grin.gif


You do just fine Saf from what I've seen, you're quite some dressage diva.
tongue.gif


Full time ISZ, sounds horrible to me?! I promise to try to be anonymous next time out.
frown.gif
Will ring you when we're going xc, how about Aylesford? Loads of ditches and water, your favourites.
tongue.gif
 
Now we all know there is no money to be made from breeding and competing horses plus there are all those days off work or in hospital.

You write such interesting and amuzin' reports WHY don't you offer your services to the BEEB? you would bring pleasure to millions.

Delighted that Hector is back in work.
