So much to do, In such little time.

Today and yesterday I have had so much to do and such little time to do it in. After riding Gatsby on saturday I logged on to check my UCAS (university application thing) and earlier that day it had been changed and I had got a reply from Staffordshire University, they said that they wanted me to go to an interview on the 5th (four days away), I asked my mum if she could take me and she said yes because nothing else was planned. Then yesterday I got an email off the Staffordshire University with all the things that I was going to need for the interview, its not bad enough that I have to stand up and talk to people that I don't know but I also needed to find a sketch book, photograph the majority of last years coursework and put it into a portfolio, I also needed to do written work as it wasn't just a photography course but it was a photojournalism course. 

Well today mum woke me up at 9:40 and we started work, I didn't finish working til 6:00 roughly. I have managed to get my art work out of school photograph my favourite pieces of coursework and then print them out on plain white paper with a description of what each piece is, I then included some Candid shots (for those of you who don't know photographs that people do not know are being taken) and some Rider shots that I have taken over the years. 

Then it was on to the written work this was going to be the hardest thing for me, but it was something that I needed to have, on Monday I bought a new folder. The first thing to put in it was coursework from A2 Level English (the second year of my A-levels). Then I wrote two extra pieces, the first one was on Tim Flach some of you might know him as a horse photographer then I did a second one on Ansel Adams. The third thing I did for my written work was I took screen shots from my blog that you lovely people read every day and when I had done that I put a bit of writing about them and put them in my folder.

I would also like to say a huge thank you to Jan from 'A thousand pounds of fragile horse' for the prize that I got, me and Gatsby love it! And for anyone that hasn't checked out her blog click on the link and head over and check it out :) 

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

possible broken hand x3.

hiya guys well it's been a few days and I was planning on updating you all today. Unfortunately I won't be able to go in to as much detail as I want to because I am having problems typing because it looks like for the third time I have broken my hand again!  In the exact same place, how rubbish is that? But they can't tell me because it will not show up for another two weeks on an X-ray so at the minute it's back in a splint and I've got to go back to hospital in two weeks.  Well Saturday I got to ride Gatsby again. We have been working on getting him in to an outline more consistantly but it took me seeing Fiona riding Pumpkin Pie for me to know what it was that I needed to do for Gatsby to work properly in to an outline. We got some really good work in the walk and trot (I have got pictures) and slowly we are starting to get it in the canter as well but by the time we move on to canter I tend to feel quite tired and weak on my left side. We did an exercise th

Hello strangers!

 Wow it feels like a life time ago since I updated my blog let alone since I actually started first writing this blog. So many things have changed and I’ve kept thinking about restarting this but every time I think about doing it life gets in the way and before you know it I just haven’t done it.  So where do I start, how about with the big fella himself. My midnight magic is now 8! He has a heart of gold and after a particularly rough year is definitely coming out of the other side. Magic is a jumping lover and if you let him pick I think that’s all he’d ever do. He’s spent a lot of time working on his flat work which in the long run has really helped to develop his jumping. Last year magic suffered a horrible injury, he damaged his suspensory ligament on his front left leg and on the same leg damaged the collateral ligament that goes to his coffin joint, unfortunately for him he had a pretty bleak prognosis, with only a 30% of being even field sound. With a little bit of luck, blood,
