Bronze Award 1&2 Training Evening 1 :)

I am on a mission to get fit, I've been on a mission to lose weight for a while but only recently have I really wanted to start to get fit. Losing weight is always a good goal but getting fitter is an even better goal. Ever since last week I've been walking once a day with my dad, although we decided that we would have sundays off. I am also hoping that I can start swimming again soon.

Today I went for my usual walk with my dad and then spent some time reading my horse magazine that came in the post this morning. This afternoon/evening was my weekly Pony Club in two weeks we will have our Bronze Level 1 and 2 test evening. So today we were practicing for the test evening and we will do the same next week. We decided that even though the riding part of the test is simply that we would spend tonight practicing it. The hardest part was that you have to be able to mount and dismount from the wrong side of the horse. The only other thing that you need to do was be able to walk in a straight line and be able to halt as well as be able to do basic movements turning left or right and circles. Then it was time to put the horses to bed, I did Rascal and got him all ready for the night. We ran out of time so didn't get around to doing the feeds at Pony Club so once everyone had gone I helped Fiona and Elaine to do the feeds.

Tomorrow I am going up to help in the morning and then have got a driving lesson in the afternoon.

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...

Picture time Part one

Hiya Guys, I can't say that I've really done much today other than finding myself sleeping lots. After the past week being quite stressful as well as the few weeks before leading up to the court date it's safe to say I've hit my barrier where all I really want to do is sleep. The problem is though that I am sleeping during the day and then it gets to 11pm roughly and I find myself wide awake and on my laptop looking for something to do that is going to make me feel sleepy. I've tried reading a book and I start to feel really sleepy but then the minute that I turn the light off and put the book down, bang, I'm wide awake again. As I've not really done a lot I thought that I would take this opportunity to post some pictures up from the last time that I jumped Gatsby (also the first time I fell off him). Most of these pictures were taken by the boyfriend but some were also taken by my amazing mum. So here you go guys. :) Really do love this pic...

Decisions!

I hate them, this all started yesterday when my dad said that the money that I had got could buy me a decent mini as I love mini's and really want one, my instant reaction was NO that money is meant for my horse riding and for me to be able to buy my own horse! My mum then said to my dad that he should have known that, that was the reaction that he was going to get from me. However I then started to really think about the idea, a mini would allow me to go different places to do with riding and not have to rely on mum or dad or fit around my brothers schedule, it would then mean that when I did have my own horse I would be able to get to it. So I started to look around on the internet at used mini's as there is no way that I would be able to afford a brand new one, and I saw a few that were a reasonable price and that I liked the look of but then came the problem the Mini one is mainly a 1.6Litre Engine, which would be over £1000 in insurance, so I started to look for a Mini On...
