Smallwood PC event...and Ian...

[eventingnovice]

So...Im doing Smallwood this Saturday, very excited as feel up for the chalange!.
Was wondering if anyone else was doing Smallwood? and What the course is like?

It seems weird that just a few days ago I was having my Ian Olding lessons and he was helping to feel so happy and confident and was really pushing me to do my Intro events... he was such a great man, allways up for a laugh, making Sommerford camps what they are, its such a sad loss and I will never forget your last few words of advise to me 'IF IN DOUBT....TROT'
RIP Ian and make sure you watch over me at Richmond, I may need a helping hand! loves, hugs and kisses. xxxxx

Heres a link to pics of some of the fences but most of them are quite old and the course has been updated since (the example courses are both 3/3'3 by the way)

Its a nice venue, ground should be good as it hasnt rained too much, hope you have a good day! My PC is running another ODE in June there if you're interested....
