Your horse live

I thought it was excellent!
Sadly I didn't get to as many demos as I'd have liked, but it was all so useful and I have a good few tips to try out when I next ride Neddy :D

Also, the shopping was epic :D
 
Am all shopped out! We only watched the Eilberg demo - which was excellent, beautiful horses and lovely riders. However, it is a very long walk from Car Park 3 - I suggest you get the shuttle bus. Impressed with the facilities - the coffee was fab!
 
heather moffat was great as always, i thought it was better than the Eilberg one

spent far too much, as you do when you have a new horse
 
Had a really fab day. Yes the car park is a bit of a walk but not that bad. I watched the Ollie and Geoff demo, comedy duo those two, and the Lucinda demo, which was fantastic!! Got a great priced full neck rug, and ordered a load of these fibre blocks that seem to be the new thing. Some good bargains to be had IMO.
 
I'm going tomorrow, ridiculously excited, highlight of my year! Just out of interest, what was the temperature like inside this year? It's usually quite cold but last year it was much warmer & I'm not sure just how many layers to take with me... x
 
Hadnt been for years, and was thoroughly impressed, had an amazing day. Demos where fab loved Geoff and Ollie, hilarious! Also fab to watch Lucinda Fredericks with Headley Britannia, best bit was when her daughter rode her too. That was seriously cute
Shopping was superb, bling everywhere ! Spent loads, wish I was going back tomorrow. Car park was a nice walk, helped to shake off some of the calories after devouring the chocolate fountain.:o

starryeyed - I was toasty with a fleece on
 
Fab day. Much fairer system of getting into demos. Saw Oli and Geoff twice, hysterical. Loads of really good show offers,its too tempting. Bought daughter a Joules coat and Snood from Joules reduced and i got an Equisafety coat reduced. Could spend a fortune. Vety busy and a bit of a crush this afternoon just make sure you start queing 30 mins before to get a seat.
 
It was my first year going & really enjoyed it!

We had VIP tickets do got to see both Eilberg Demo's, Lucinda Fredericks & Oli & Geoff. The car parking for VIP ticket holders is really close.

The shopping was great. I only needed a Parelli natural hackamore, but also got a 22 foot line. The stuff I didn't need but were such great bargains were a Dublin belted body warmer & 2 fleece top (8 each!), Sealskinz winter riding gloves, three pairs of thermal riding socks, saddle bag carrier & tub of horse treats - spent under £140/150 so pleased with that.

Mum got me Hovis Diaries 1&2 as a Christmas stocking filler too - I think she was grateful to have found something :D

I found it chilly - I had thermal socks, boot liners & country boots. Long sleeved top, knitted jumper, wax coat & a faux fur headband & mittens and certainly certainly wasn't hot - at times I was chilly.
