How was the Lincoln Christmas market? You enjoy life in Lincoln so far?
 
Whoa, you are a glutton for punishment!
I am filling in my cellar, on saturday am, as I fell into it 2 nights ago (rotten floor joist,honest!) then in the aftenoon going to attempt to take the 3 neds (in a 2 horse trailer) to AIntree SJ, plan is to take Emmy do clear round and 1st to go in 75cms, come home pick up Touchy and SOv, do 75cms with Touchy, if she enjoys it do the 85, if not I will take her home, then bring SOv back for the last 2 classes.
 
Come up to Aintree, David, I have a spare horse or two for you to ride!!!

Hey Nats! the market itself was brilliant but I and several other members of our party suffered from mild hypothermia lol!!!! The weather was appalling but the atmosphere was great!
Park and ride really well organised!
The Lincolnshire Wolds are very pretty but around 20 miles away and the people seem to be very nice! It's closer to Nottingham Uni. which is where I hope to study come September, than our old place in Norfolk. Much prefer the landscape of Norfolk but must say Lincolnshire is beginning to really have it's plus points! Any suggestions on where to visit most greatfully received!

Cool - did you have a Baileys hot chocolate? I think you will have company next year for it - I may drag Holly_Jane up with me!

I know its outside Lincolnshire but The Deep (aquarium) in Hull was good. Obviously a trip to Skegness is a must. I also recommend the tattooist in Sleaford.

Other then that we didn't venture out of Lincoln much. Good indian restaurant on the high street (the driveable bit) up near the Peugeot dealership (where I used to work!) - called Passage to India I think

Have you got a jumping/GP saddle in a wide??? Otherwise you'd have to do it in a Sue carson dressage saddle!!! (he he)

[/ QUOTE ]
Nope, only got my wow which is set up for narrow.
Dont see a prob with jumping in a dressage saddle. I have to jump wifes welshie in her albion dressage saddle.
Tis only un-aff you know, not grand prix

I think I've found a horsey, so I am trying her out again on Saturday and have arranged vetting for Monday afternoon - so fingers crossed.

I was looking for a bay Irish gelding and have ended up with a chestnut mare Dutch Warmblood !
 
Thank you

I did and thought of you!!!! Got totally wrecked as I don't normally drink lol!!! Ohhh good catch on the ideas but don't think I'll be doing the Tattooist lol! Bit old for that! Do give me a shout next Chrimbo. and come on down! Bring whoever you want!

I'm staying at home putting up Christmas trees whilst daughter and husband go fun show jumping at The Grange. for a change they can do without me and groom for themselves!
It is a shame in a way because husband's mare hasn't been out competing for nearly two years, so she should be sending poles flying, and he isn't sure if his smashed heel will support him jumping so it's one of those times the video would be useful..
I'm going to light both fires, stick Christmas music on, decorate the trees and even sit and do bugg** all for some of the time Yippeeee....(note to the Grange, pleeeeeease don't cancel..

a pretty quiet weekend i think
probably just hack out, and hopefully not drown, like i nearly did last weekend.
when i saw the sun on monday morning, i smiled so much, after the horrendous weekend!
smile.gif


good luck to everyone competing

Yep - ours too, so flying ooop north tomorrow morning. Still have this stinky cold, and doing my training session with trainer yesterday has caused me to lsoe my voice - grrrrrrrrrrrr, so the draw aint going to be so fun if I can't speak!

Poor you!!!!! that really is naff! all I can suggest is try that throat numbing spray from the Chemists so that come the weekend you can heckle at the draw with the best of them!!!!
xx
 
I haven't written on one of these for AGES as haven't had no plans but now.............
Flynn is hopefully having ALL his fluff removed as will Titus and Woody might have a lil belly and neck fluff removed!! NAKED PONIES!!! Also attacking their manes/tails/legs so they look like proper horses again!!!
I'm then going to ride them all!!!!
Woody hasn't been ridden since september, whilst F + T will do there first schooling sessions which I'm sure they will hate and object to as much as possible!!!!
Woo Hoo am excited now!!! role on eventing!!!
 
I'm working all day Saturday and Sunday morning which means I won't make the British Novice at Northallerton on the 16th
mad.gif
but I might still be able to go to an unaffilliated venue on the Sunday afternoon and then be back in time to meet a friend at TGI Fridays in the evening.
 
No competing for me
