Yay! I did it...

[jumpthemoon]

I drove all the way to the jump clinic and all the way back in the lorry on my own

I can't believe I was so worried about it now I've done it - I don't know what I expected it to be like with a horse in, but I could hardly tell he was there! I was feeling sick all morning worrying about driving for the first time with a horse in the back...the world is our Oyster now..... woohoo!

 

[kerilli]

ooh, excellent, well done you. how was the jump clinic... obviously not as exciting as the drive there and back...!

 

[Nickijem]

Wayhay! There is no stopping you now!
You're lucky to have transport, I wish I had although I'd be as nervous as you were driving with my horse in the back.

 

[jumpthemoon]

The jump clinic was great - now I've got some transport I need to get out and do more jumping - am being introduced to a guy called Michael Jones on Saturday who is supposed to be good. I felt so worried about the driving though I didn't get stressed about the clinic at all! Lol!

I can't believe I made such a fuss now....no wonder the women on the yard i work at looked at me gone out when I said I was nervous about it

woohooo well done you...go go retro lorry

I love your lorry!! Now you've GOT to get out competing - no excuse now!

 

[jumpthemoon]

Hehe thanks

It really wasn't that bad - I didn't even know he was there most of the time!

 

[jumpthemoon]

I know....it's become apparent we need to do more jumping though!!! I'm a bit rusty

I'm thinking of hiring a school out this weekend with some jumps though...

[saskia295]

Well done!! I'm going to be doing my trailer test soon and I'm equally bricking it about travelling with a horse in on my own

Now I know it can be done though, I know we will we ok!!!

How was the clinic?

 

[jumpthemoon]

The clinic was great thanks - I was so worried about the travelling I didn't even think about the jumping! Lol! It was really easy thoguh - I could hardly notice any difference having a horse in the back. I heard him neigh a couple of times and heard his hooves once or twice (or it might have been the cats-eyes!

) but apart from that it was brill

Can't wait to book the next outing now! Woohoo!

 

[jumpthemoon]

Aww it would have been nice to see you as well

Maybe next time
