Went along to local BD centre today to support the music classes that they have started to run, although our Novice level is "work in progress" at the moment.
I had simplified the floor plan so the music ran out before my movements at a couple of points
and he was heavy in the hand and not off the leg (although lovely in lessons and schooling all week
). So although I was disappointed with how we had gone, I wasn't shocked to get 58%
As I was leaving with the test sheet, the writer (who I know to say hello to at shows) said "Shall I pass on what the judge said, as it will help you?". Foolishly, I said "yes", although I couldn't really say no, and she said, he was downhill (yes, at times), not active enough and the music was awful and didn't match the horse at all!
I said that I had it done professionally and I like it - she was astonished and said anyone could do better and it was just a case of counting the beats of the horse, and the music and finding selections and joining it all together...(yes, that's why I paid for it to be done!
).
We then managed to disagree on every other horse we discussed too!
In the end I said, we will have to disagree and left it - fuming...!
Perhaps I am a bit over sensitive but I do have lessons and pay for advice!
Rant over
Anyone else get offered advice when they haven't asked for it?
