Changes in Gatsby

Okay everyone I have time to update about the changes in Gatsby before I go up to west hallam this is mainly a pictures post, as it is easier to see from the pictures the changes in him but at the same time there will be bits of information here and there as well :

This picture and the pictures below show Gatsby when he was at Broomfield, while he worked hard and did what he wanted us to do, he was holding his head in a high position and his way to get out of doing work was to shake his head, which ended up being a bad habbit, now Gatsby does not shake his head for no reason as much as he used to, he still does it occasionally but not as much

 The two pictures above show Gatsby in the same position, the first was taken in september and the one below was taken in march i have done this to show how gatsby has put weight on and now looks a lot healthier than he used to. :D

 These last two pictures i have put in to show how gatsby now works in a much more 'rounded outline' keeping his head lower, making him much more balanced. This made him feel a lot better when riding him.The final change in gatsby is the fact that he is now a lot calmer, where as before he used to get really excited and want to rush in to a canter he now is a lot calmer and is still working forward he is not slow or lazy but looks healthier and happier

So when i get back from riding there will be lots more pictures however this time they will be taken from a video of gatsby and i will let you all know what i was doing today

Until then

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...

45. The move

6.45am - I got woke up, I was not happy to be woken up, I'd been dreaming about this move the whole night and I was beyond exhausted. I didn't go to sleep until quite late and then I was up, I'd set out all my clothes the night before for me and Jack so that we could just get up in the morning and go.  7am - Got to the yard, NOBODY was there which was exactly the way that I wanted it to be. I mucked out his stable at the old yard for the last time ever. I made sure that the stable was really clean and that I hadn't left anything in it. I loaded up the last few things in the car and we were ready to go. I received a lovely text from my riding teacher saying good luck today and that she knew that I would be fine, this gave me a real confidence boost as my riding teacher knows me better than anyone (horse wise) and she believed in me. Along with my mum, dad and boyfriend.  Do you think we had enough hi-viz on I was taking no chance that magic was going to not be ...

My Dream Barn

So the other day I saw someone who did a post like this and thought why not, I might as well do one, even if I can't afford it I can still day dream, right?  My dream barn would be open and spacious, I love the wood look and how natural it appears to be but can also look really fancy/sophisticated. I also like the idea of the stables being in a U shape with doors and windows facing inwards so all the horses can see each other. I love the stable image above, I love how lit up they are the wooden look to them and the way the stable doors are. I'd also like it so that some of the stables had runs going out the back so that the horse could choose whether to be inside or outside. I also really like how the bottom of the stable walls are a stone wall.  If the stalls were inside I'd love them to look like this, I again love the wood look but I also really like how open everything is. I like how everyone can see everything and how it has the chance for the horses...
