Hey everyone, 

hope your all managing to read my posts easily if the font or the colour of the font makes my posts harder to read let me know and I will play around with them and make them more readable. 

Today my mum took me, my brother, and my brothers girl friend to one of my all time favourite places in the UK possibly even the world coming in second place to anywhere that is horse related! I took loads of pictures (mainly in black and white) and have not yet put them on my computer! But when I do I'll make sure that I put some of the best ones up so you can hopefully tell why I want to become a photographer,  however I would like to be a photographer that focus on photographing horses, as these will always be my main passion.

As I am writing this post I am thinking about to things, the first thing is a book that I read called the 'One Dollar Horse'  and secondly 'Jennifer Saunders - back in the saddle'. The book 'One Dollar Horse' is a really good story and I suggest to anyone that is horse crazy and just wants something different to read to try reading this book it will be a series of three but unfortunately neither of the other two have come out yet :( BUT when they do I will make sure to read them. A brief summary of the book is that they are about a girl, who loves horses and has always wanted her own, and one day when shes out with her dad she walks past a horse slaughter house and sees this horse extremely upset, and in distress so pays the owners of the slaughter house one dollar to buy the horse. Once she gets it she then puts him through immediate vet assessments, which lead to him needing a lot of medication, she then trains this horse to become an eventing horses, and it ends on her competing in one of the must do shows for eventer's and she ended up winning it! 

Now on to my second thing on my mind, the T.V. show 'Jennifer Saunders - Back in The Saddle' the show started last week and is about Jennifer aiming towards a goal of competing again and riding again like she used to when she was a little girl. The first show, showed us her finding the perfect horse for, and this happens to be a horse called Jack. This week she shows us her training towards entering the Badminton horse trials. Unfortunately it ended up getting cancelled because of the rain that we had early in the year. So now she has headed down to Norfolk and is entering a show there! I strongly recommended to anyone that can watching this programme its on ITV 1 at 9:00pm and is an hour long but it is really good! I like it because it gives me the confidence that if she can do it when shes had years and years off that anyone can do whatever they want if they believe enough. So it's made me believe more now than ever that because I believe so strongly that I'll get my own horse that one day in the future I will get my own horse.  

Until Next Time

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...
