Manor Farm BSJA today

[Thistle]

It was so cold!

Very quiet friendly and lovely cheesy chips in the cafe.

Wilough and Bee won the British Novice with Bee and Floss in 3rd
Floss came 2nd in the Disco, unfortunately Willough 'missed' at a double and crashed through the first part she was so brave and just picked up and jumped out and finished the round.

Only won money for the 1st though as it was quiet, annoying though as Floss's 2nd was good enough for a high place even if the class had been much bigger.

Need to thaw out now as I have guests for supper.

Clever Wilough, sounds like a good day, particularly with cheesy chips! What's the arena like - would I be able to wagon my big Ross round there as it's not too far to travel for me

It's 60 by 30 I think, nice waxed surface but thin light poles. Very twisty tricky tracks today, people complaining they weren't suitable for novices to jump. Suited our two though.

Very friendly, no hassle venue. Good parking too. Outdoor warm up.

Another great day out

I'm already getting serious withdrawl symptoms. I need to go jumping

I never though I would enjoy BSJA, far too namby pamby for us eventers. However we are starting to enjoy the winning money side of it, long may it continue!

You couldn't get much more of an allrounder than Willough.

Bought as a PC 2'6" pony, hunts, events and hacks, and PC, also daughters best friend. We have had her nearly 5 years now and she continues to answer every question we ask.
Floss is also proving to be a star, but we don't know her so well yet as we have only had her since Sept.
