No pics, sorry, but loving the old school pics from Storeton etc. I miss Tetton *sigh* :(, I've got a couple of crackers over the ditch & hedge in the Int - that was a proper XC course! :eek: ;) :D. I guess there's no hope of a resurrection...?

This is the first time I've loaded a photo so hopefully I've done it correctly as I have no idea what I'm doing LOL!!!
This is me on old horse, 1st homebred at PC champs at Weston Park, I think 24 years ago :eek: (is it too early to drink due to feeling old;)) It's one of my favourites

Baggy Breeches, I've jumped that fence and I'm trying to remember where it was, Hazel Booth's? West Lancs Ince Blundell PC? PC area?'s or tetrathlon?

I drive past Storeton quite alot and there's still some of the old fences there and I always wish it would start up again, Parkgate too.
Anyway here's mine:
In the PN at Moreton Morrell:

And more recently (Ignore the washing line reins, those who know Kelsall, we just jumped the Novice drop and I did a bit of a Mary King impression :D )

This pic looker bad, but the amount of time spent trying to encourage him to jump the scary 'pony eating ditch' was a heck of a challenge!

Getting him to reurn the other way over it was just as challenging!

I love this picture-It is the last time he will ever jump at this height and he was fab, and didn't even bother trying.

This picture just makes me smile, it shows off his cute side :)

This was the first time we got XC right, I rode him properly and he just pinged :)

This is my girly last night

I think she is looking fantastic and we are getting on so much better. She was so skinny and upside down when I got her 9 months ago.

This is her about 2 months after I got her

Although she is still cheeky ;)

This is the 2 loves of my life, my fiance and my Oldenburg mare Polly, she was 5 here she went on the jump 1.30m's and compete Medium dressage with me before injuring herself. She is now brewing up our next generation and shes going to be a fantastic mum

This one is my Fav of my old boy Herbie, he was about 23 in this pic:-

189455_10150143971335210_503675209_8200105_5203060_n.jpg


and him again showing thats just because he was over 20 didn't mean he couldnt jump a decent course still bless him:-

n503675209_2649297_7623601.jpg


This is my favourite photo of my late mare. My friend took it when we were jumping in the school and I think its a brilliant photo:-

n503675209_822977_4449.jpg


And these are my two favourite photos of my J. The first one was 3 months after I got him and I nervously took my stiff little ex-racer to his first ever dressage and he came 6th in his first BD with 64% :)

23822_376649360209_503675209_5131108_5463432_n.jpg


Fast forward a year later and not only can he do dressage but he's a pretty nifty jumper as well!:-

I had my mare over 14years and won hundreds of rosetts but this is the only pic i have with her wearing one, she was 19 jumped round a 1m class after not seeing the ring for 18 months until a show the month previous. She was pts 8 months later so very special pic

And the reason she won so many frillies in her life
KSCN0010.jpg

Yes its Hazel Booth's we used to have our PC stuff there for years. I still go to Hazel's to use the moat for water schooling. :)

Ah my memory's not as bad as I thought, which means I can carry on drinking ;):D:p Glad to hear the it's still in use, we always enjoyed our trips over to that side of the county :)

I love this thread! I may be rather sentimental but I think you can see the dedication, effort and partnership between horse and rider in all these photos. It's very humbling :)

Intermediate Teamchasing - I never ever thought I'd do one in a million years, Ballet and I did two seasons of it! :D This hedge had a massive drop on the other side despite being well over 5 foot from the take off side!

Again Intermediate teamchasing. :)

The first time Spanner went XC schooling as a 4y/o - found everything very easy.

IMG_92541.jpg


After over a year of Spanner being a constant pain doing any kind of flatwork, and showing me her best repetitive handstand impressions every time I sat on her, she suddenly clicked, and then early this year won a dressage competition, having come last in every other one for 'disobediances' and 'extremely exuberant behaviour' - ie. bucking so much she went straight out the arena... :D
