Our school isn't doing to great. It had a lot of surface water on it yesterday but it dried out a little through out today but it has just got so wet sticky and deep. Going to avoid going in there from now on till this rain has gone.. whenever that shall be! Its a sand arena with a fibre top, so the top is nice but all the rain seeps into the sand making the footing quite deep. Not good :(
 
Brilliant :)

We really needed the rain. It's a brand new silica sand surface and needed the rain to compact it. Our drains are excellent, so water always drains away immediately

Waiting for the rubber top now... But it is riding really well :)
 
Actually, it's held up really well . . . very pleasantly surprised :). Fields are draining well too . . . we only have real mud near the gate and it's minimal (all things considered).

We have a spa complex atm. Cleansing mud bath at one end, then a nice dry yoga spot right in the middle and a swimming pool at the other end. :D
(the dry spot is literally one just big enough for someone to stand or and not sink)
 
I am secretly delighted by all this rain!! -waits to be shot at - as our school is now perfect! Ours struggles in constant dry weather as gets deep and the sand layer shifts too much, but when it is wet it packs down lovely!!
