Little update

It certainly does!! I dont want it going too quickly, still have a lot to cram in and he is only 4!
Im hoping that, because hes quite bold that he wont require too many runs. Bit like T_E's William, if he is 1/2 as good as William I will be thrilled - however, Vicky is riding winston this weekend so I am sure she can judge whether snoop is hot or not.

Great to hear that all's well in the BBs household (or stables rather).
My little mare bucks like stink in the field, but has never ever tried it under saddle, very much hope your Snoopy is the same.
If you have any recent photos I would love to see them (if you want to send via PM that is fine).
Best of luck with them all over the winter.

He hasn't ever struck me as being fantabulous but hs babies are jut gorgeous and he has a lovely old fashioned look about him. Shall call them at some point in the next moth or so and send her in March/April.
 
Nice to get an update.
Would your Adington trip be 9th/10th by any chance.
Can I come and play XC at MK to please. just cos I wont be eventing next season doesn't mean we cant still play.
 
Glad it is all going well - Snoop sounds like a little star and I'm glad Winnie and Burtie are both feeling well.

Ginger Assasin at your services for XC schooling duties in the new year - looking forward to it already!

Might see you BSJA before then anyway, we are still avoiding weekend days (although we did go to Markfield last Sunday) - mid-week seems so much more civilised and I still have 3 more days of holiday to use before Christmas!!

No need to worry about our winning streak - we will be plodding around as slow as a bus from now on. We are heading toward serious danger of putting ourselves out of BN!!

Objective for rest of the season - to collect 2 more DCs at BN and Disco without winning any more cash!!
 
Hey get you.....no more winning
wink.gif
well I am thrilled GA has bucked her ideas up and turning into a super dooper competition pony
smile.gif


Well I have no leave left
frown.gif
although Im thinking I may do a unpaid leave day on the thursday of addington
smile.gif


YAY looking forward to xc schooling, should be great
smile.gif
also have a couple of aston le walls freebee xc schooling tickets i think, so we can go there also
smile.gif
 
7th I thought??? isnt it that progressive weekend??

Ahh well, I guess something has to be her downfall! she cant be super sonic in everything
tongue.gif
the rest of us have to be given a chance lol

I will get snoop to talk to her about dressage and she can tell him all about xc. I already have winston on his case also

im so glad you posted about your two!!!! like i keep saying to you snoop is going to be such a mega star its untrue, i bet you are itching to get him out competing
smile.gif


Im glad winnie is behaving himself too (well sort of!)
grin.gif
 
Probably just the one! if suzy can come then I may bring both of them! mayhave to borrow your lorry as Winst wont want to be left on his own!

Am trying to take Snoop clear rounding on the wednesday night before scaring him with the lights at addington.

Suzy rang the guy we bought him from this morning, he asked had we been out and abotu yet, S said no, he understood and agreed the first few times are important and that S should be with me - its like having a resident trainer lol

S is off to Germany today, and back on Monday - not sure if shes way again after that. Need to pin her down to come jumping with me, as I am now itching to get going.
 
Thanks PG

Umm we shall see if hes a super star! he has a lot to live up too. However, he takes most things in his stride lol

Winston will not change! hes confused he doesnt understand why hes 17h he really should be 12.2! hence his naughty strong character

You are very welcome to borrow my lorry, but will Winnie feel safe with the Ginger Assasin snarling at him through the bars?

That sort of thing could give the boy nightmares!

Poor Merry is terrified of her!
 
Thursday Addington is a good plan if you want your DCs with no money. I've been twice since they opened the new arena, both times there were over 80 in the BN and about the same in the Disco/1m open (it's a combined class). Get ready for a long day! Didn't bother going today (off to a BD meeting this evening, get me!), but let me know if you guys go, I will make an effort to come too, not long before William can come!

You better believe it.
Jumped the newcommers/1.10 at 6.40pm yesterday and there were still 20 or so after me. 83 in class. All classes had atleast this number. God knows how may were in the discovery but they paid prize money to 14th.

Would have been between 70 and 74 then...1 place for every 5 starters

Yikes that is a long day!!

Did you do the 85cm unaffiliated as well? or did you not bother with that?

How did you get on?

I saw you in H&H yesterday
