Driving fun.

This morning I got to have a lie in, because the past week I haven't been sleeping well and I have been feeling tired 24/7 even though I have been sleeping quite a lot its strange. Today I went for a two hour drive my mum decided that the route I normally go on was becoming to easy for me to drive so she wanted to challenge me a bit more. I went to Matlock and on the way I remembered that today was the last day of the chatsworth horse trials. I thought that by driving through chatsworth I would be able to see the horses. Turns out that I couldn't as they were on the other side of the hall. It was so annoying. But I had a really good drive and the drive back was fun too. The route contained lots of bends and twists in it as well as lots of ups and downs, it really got me thinking about what gears I needed to be in and when I needed to change gear. I had a really good drive and enjoyed doing it. 

When we got in my uncle was nearly and so was a family friend to see my mum. So I couldn't reverse in to my space as I knew I wouldn't be able to get the right angle. So I left it parked on the first part of my drive. we then came in the house and I helped my mum to get the evening meal ready. We chatted with Martin for a while and then he had to go to get his dinner ready. We had our tea and I then decided that I would reverse my car in it took me a fair while but I eventually managed to do it. I wanted to get other perfect and that meant that I had to attempt it a couple of the times but I did eventually manage to do it. I'm really shocked that I can park on my drive because my older sister will never park on my drive and if she does she normally asks my mum to do it for her. 

Tomorrow I have a university meeting to do with my long term chronic pain its going to take up to two hours so it could be a fairly long day then in the evening I have my first ponyclub meeting. I am buzzing I can't wait for some more horse time and the chance to learn more things about horses. So tomorrow I will have a horse related post. 

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...
