- am thinking there won't be any riding today unless its stops now!
Have been to see the eventer trial and saw the open class
- one girl rode beautifully - the others had little or no control and should have been smacked with their sticks not smacking their horses. Anyhoo neice is well up for it an is going there to do an eventing clinic on Friday (is on half term) to give it a whirl before the next trial and the Oli Townend Challenge.
We had a quick stroll round the tack shop and I bought 2 pairs of long socks and some pink fleece bandages for neice - her horse is orange.......
It has finally stopped raining here! I am enjoying a day off work (I work with horses) and have been to the yard this morning to turn out my ponies and muck out and have come home again. Don't think I am going to ride today, gunna give me and the ponies a day off!
S_L - Where was the Eventer Trial you went to watch at? Vale View?
afternoon all - been at work and had friend over. just need to pop to the draeded supermarket and then do essay tonight. urrrrrgh essay on a sat night!!! sad
Afternoon, popped over to the saddlery earlier and they had a saddle in which was the size I ordered I was a bit
that no-one had contacted me as it has been 3 months but very happy that hopefully I should have the saddle soon and be able to ride hopefully they will ring to arrange a fitting asap. Bit worried though as it looked like a very wide wide
hopefully they will be able to make it fit *fingers crossed*
Managed to sort the horses out and worm the both as the weather is very misrible now

Hi,
Have just spent 4 hours cleaning out my bedroom.
Its amazing how much junk you can gain over time, I'm a bit of a hoarder and go with the 'should I chuck it? No I may need it some day' kind of person.
But today I've forced myself to get rid of the clothes I never wear and the stuff that just sits in a drawer doing nothing.
Hope everyone has had a good day, even through the rain

I am the exact same
I cleared out my wardrobe a few months back and although I haven't exactly bought anything since then I am going to have to go through it again I still have too many clothes I don't wear.
I am a pain at getting rid of things though as I want to sell them on so I get a couple of quid back but I know I will never get round to listing them all on ebay.
Little Jockey kindly fed Charlie this morning so I had a bit of a lie in. Then Little Jockey and me went for a great hack, had a couple of good gallops that really blew the cobwebs away. Charlie need re-clipping again though, he was sooooooo sweaty!
Got home thinking I would have a nice relaxing afternoon only to be told that even though the one lot of family that were staying with us had left this morning, another lot had suddenly decided to come and stay for the weekend. Cue a mad dash changing bedding and tidying round the house. We've got a great evening ahead though. Fridge full of booze (I've started drinking already
), homemade chicken curry and some more Ben and Jerry's. Will be watching the X-Factor and then a few films.
Free bar tonight so help yourself guys
Hope you have all had a great day!? And don't forget to enjoy your extra hour in bed tomorrow!
