Day Three of updating my blog :')

Hey y'all I'm managing to update my blog like I promised. With the help of my mum who tells me when I don't double check my spellings, and when things don't make sense! Thank You Mummy.

Well today it was the dreaded day of the blood test! I had to have one to check that my liver was working properly, unfortunately I've had 3/4 in the last month so this time it really hurt, and it also hurts more because of how deep the vein is! Trust me to have difficult veins hey? 

Secondly I want to thank you all for sticking by and following me when I haven't been able to update as much as I would like to have, but now I plan to keep telling you more, even if it is just about everyday things that go on. Moving on to the better part of my blog, the part that I know you all love the HORSES! After all that is what we all love and are here about! So who's being watching the olympics? For those of you who haven't here's an update! 

Today it has been cross country day initially I wasn't a cross country kind of girl, I couldn't really understand it, then for my last lesson at Broomfield this term I got to try cross country jumping and I LOVED IT! The adrenaline was amazing and something that I really enjoyed doing. So today I have found the cross country part of the eventing particularly fascinating. Team GB are currently in 1st Place in the team rankings. And individually the results are as follows In Fifth Place - Kristina Cook. Sixth Place - Mary King. Joint 10th Place - Zara Phillips. 20th Place - Nicola Wilson. The fifth rider has yet to go but when they do I will let you know how it goes that's William Fox-Pitt. Will post again later to let you know how does.

While this is being a particularly good day for team GB, it has been a bad day for Japan with two of their riders being eliminated. This is the same case for Australia, Ireland and Canada. Just got the results and in 20nd Place - William Fox-Pitt. So that is the results for Team GB woop woop things are going well for the team, however at the moment in time they are stuck in 2nd Place behind Germany. Only showjumping left to go tomorrow will be thrilling and something to keep an eye on! As you guys have had no pictures of my riding here's the olympic team GB members and there horses.

CON ARTIST - NICKI WILLIAMS - BEWARE

Okay so this post has taken me a while to post for several reasons but the main one being just how angry this woman has made me.  For those of you that have been following my blog for a long while you will know that back around October of 2016, I was introduced to a woman called Nicki Williams, she was a friend of a friend that was supposed to be opening a centre for rehoming and rescuing animals, but also for horses working with soldiers that has PTSD. We hit it off straight away and came what I thought to be good friends. However warning bells should have probably rang sooner. By January or February of last year the horses that I had agreed to look after (that she had got on loan) Bella and Arthur, she was being threatened that she would have them taken off her by the control of horses act, because she hadn't been paying the rent for the field. Although Nicki reassured me that she had done, she even showed my 'payments' that had been made to Angie. I ended up getti...

Magic's 2nd day in his new home

It has been a while since I have posted on here but I thought it was the perfect time to restart the blog. So to start with I'll give you all an update on what's been going on over the years since I've posted and then I will be back to regularly posting and keeping you all updated on the world of magic.  The first big change who I need to introduce is Jaxon, Jaxon is mine and Jack's 7 month old baby, he was born on the 7th July 2020. Part of this blog will be dedicated to overcoming the challenges of having a small child and owning a horse, even when everyone told me it was impossible to do. Jax has a best friend Bailey who is mums new 1 year old puppy and he has the best time trying to play with her.  Of course Magic is one of Jaxon's best friends.  Now for an update on Magic, he is doing really well, I can't remember if I ever told you, but he moved yards last year when I was pregnant with little man. Unfortunately this yard just didn't quite ...

Olympics - good bad or both?

In the Beijing Olympics in 2008 the horses used in the pentathlon were said to cause farcical scenes with fall after fall after fall. This was said to be the fault of the horses that were either hired or loaned to the competitors. It was not blamed to be rider error or a combination of both rider error and horse error, it was labelled as being the horses fault or this is what it said in ' Horse and Hound Magazine'. This horse was said to have been to spooky and sharp, but is it not a combination of rider's aids and rider error AS WELL as the horse being spooky. Can we really just blame it on the horse, when we are the ones that tell the horse what to do, by no means am i saying it was 'just the riders fault' couldn't it have been a combination of both?.    For the London 2012 Olympics it was said that a total of two years if no longer was spent attempting to find the right horse for the right competitor. They made sure that the horse was at the right l...
