I've just had a message from Charlie's new owner with a photo of him doing his first ODE at the weekend. She said he was a star and came 9th with just one down SJ and clear XC. He wasn't the right horse for me and I wasn't the right rider for him but I loved him dearly and it's so nice to see him doing so well and to know I didn't ruin him completely. I'm feeling a bit sorry for myself with this sciatica as, after riding for just 15 minutes on Sunday to do a dressage test for my riding club that I committed to before all this happened and couldn't find a replacement for, I've been in a lot of pain this week and it's really cheered me up to get good news about him.
It does make me a little bit sad though that Wiggy's owner doesn't get the same lift from seeing him out and about with me. She said it would be too hard to keep in touch. I totally respect that of course and realise everyone's different but I don't think I could cut ties completely. I have told her anytime she wants to get in touch, even if it's years down the line, she's welcome to.
