Horse Time yesterday and a day out today

Yesterday Morning I got up earlier and was at the stables by 8:00, it was early but I was buzzing no matter what I am doing I love my horse time and there's something about mucking out stables that I find really therapeutic. When I got there we went and Fetched Gatsby and Rascal in, and the others all went out, I even got to take Dixie out who is so cute, I think those two shetlands are amazing! I then started Mucking out and did Soloman's, Daisy's and the shetlands stables. Once we had finished this we swept the rest of the yard, and Barry looked at the blocked drain on the yard, but couldn't get at it because it's under the tractor that we couldn't move until Fiona is back. When we'd finished we had a cup of tea and a chat which was nice and then moved on to doing poo picking. Now while this isn't my favourite job it's not a job that I hate either, I find it strangely therapeutic. The best thing is because it gets kept on top of it it doesn't take that long to do where as it took ages at Broomfield. 

This morning, I woke up early as I knew I would need to be up. I didn't need to be up too early but unfortunately my brain decided I needed to be up before 8am! Talk about annoying, when I could have had a lie in. Dean and Sue picked me up and we went straight for lunch as it was lunch time and had a KFC, which was nice but not as nice as it used to be. However I did still really enjoy it. Once we had done there we were trying to decide where to go because the weather forecast had given out thunder and lightening, so we didn't want to go to the middle of no where and then that all to happen, all though it would have been amazing to photograph. We looked on my phone and the weather report said that it wouldn't thunder and lightening but it would rain. We decided that we would go to Edale, which is in the middle of no where it's lovely, the roads out we hit really bad rain but decided that we would keep going because we thought that it would pass by. It did and I ended up getting some really nice pictures. We then went to look at Lady Bower to take some pictures which is a huge reservoir, it was amazing and I got some really nice pictures that I will post later. We dropped in to Glossop and had a sandwich and a drink and then carried on. We looked all over and went to Chatsworth hoping to see the deer and sheep but we didn't see them and after this we drove home. It ended up with a sunny evening which I was quite surprised by I think that we all were. 

I am glad that we missed the thunder and lightening though because around lunch time there was thunder and lightening at home and that would have spooked me. It sounds odd but it's not the lightening that bothers me, in fact I think that is quite pretty, it's the big bangs that the thunder makes that bothers me. That's what I don't like, so I was quite pleased when I realised that we had missed it.

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,
