A hectic weekend...

Ok its time to actually write a decent length post, while I have not been posting the past few days I have been reading everyone's blogs and would like to say that my thoughts are with L over at Viva Carlos during this tough time that she is going through.  

On Friday it was ny nans funeral, while it was a sad occasion I loved being able to see everyone, including my irish cousins that went home today. We went to the crematorium for 3:08pm and emotions were running high. But I had my best friend there to support me and I really appreciated it. We then went back to Horsley lodge for the wake. It was so long afternoon but we had some really nice chats with different people that we would not see very often. Evie their came back to mine for the night because of personal things in her life, she will be with me until at least Tuesday. 

Saturday I got to see my big fella and Evie got to meet him for the second time. My cousins also got to meet him and see me ride. We were originally planning to work on doing some small jumps but Gatsby was extremely wide awake he was active forward moving but he was trying to race to. He eventually settled down and so that he doesn't get wound up we decided that we would not jump him. The canter was a bit hectic because he was over excited. He worked well in an outline and fiona was really happy to see how much my seat and tightened stomach muscles had improved. I was really happy with the comments I got. It was a great ride and I thoroughly enjoyed it. 

This morning Evie and I went to the church as she always goes on a Sunday and I said that I would go with her. We then spent some time at home watching casualty (not sure if I slept this right) we then watched some of the F1 as it's my dad's favourite programme and he always watches them. Then it was time for the best part of the day all you can eat chinese! Evie, mum, dad, my cousins, brother, sister, nephew, Mick and I all went to the Chinese. And it was gorgeous I was so full by the end of it, the sweet and sour chicken was perfect. When we had finished there my mum and brother took my cousins to watch my brothers girl friend play snooker and then took them to the station. I really enjoyed seeing them and I am gutted that they have gone home I can't sit to see them again. My dad, Evie and I went home me and Evie played monopoly and for the first time in my life I actually won. I was so happy. The evening had some eventful turns to it but that's Evies story to tell not mine. The rest of the evening we watched TV, did some cleaning. And are now just chilling but I have a feeling that tonight is going to be quite very long night so we will have to wait and see what happens.

Til tomorrow arrives I don't know what the day will bring, I should be doing a dressage thing and then pony club but at this moment in time I do not know what is going to happen. I think it is going to be a long week. 

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 luc...
