Another Uni Day and looking at Bridles at Pony Club

This morning was our weekly meeting that we have with our programme leader. I somehow managed to become a student rep for my course, which is good because it's something that I can put on my CV but I don't really know what it's going to mean that I am doing. 

In our session we looked at how different colours can effect one colour and how we perceive that colour to be, I hope that makes sense! It confused me so I might not be explaining it well. Then in the afternoon we had two hours to just be able to work on some of our sketch book stuff. It was great because I managed to get two pages done which I wouldn't have managed to get done at home. So tomorrow I need to do two pages in one of my other sketchbooks, not entirely sure which one yet but we will see sooner or later. 

At Pony Club we first of all got to see Fiona and Elaine wrestling a sheep. One of the sheep needed their feet trimming so they decided that they would do it at Pony Club, which was a laugh to watch but also really interesting. After that we all got to pick a Bridle and the job was to take it apart and then put it back together of course I picked Gatsby's. However this meant that I had to take apart his Martingale, breastplate, flash and all that so I had quite a bit more leather than most people had. But I did really enjoy doing, before we put it back together we then had to clean it. This is a job that I love doing.

I also talked to Fiona about doing my BHS Stages but I will save that for tomorrow! 

Until Next Time

    Thanks, can't believe I'm going to be a student rep I had thought about doing it for a while but never got around to it when I was in school. So I took the opportunity this 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...

45. The move

6.45am - I got woke up, I was not happy to be woken up, I'd been dreaming about this move the whole night and I was beyond exhausted. I didn't go to sleep until quite late and then I was up, I'd set out all my clothes the night before for me and Jack so that we could just get up in the morning and go.  7am - Got to the yard, NOBODY was there which was exactly the way that I wanted it to be. I mucked out his stable at the old yard for the last time ever. I made sure that the stable was really clean and that I hadn't left anything in it. I loaded up the last few things in the car and we were ready to go. I received a lovely text from my riding teacher saying good luck today and that she knew that I would be fine, this gave me a real confidence boost as my riding teacher knows me better than anyone (horse wise) and she believed in me. Along with my mum, dad and boyfriend.  Do you think we had enough hi-viz on I was taking no chance that magic was going to not be ...

My Dream Barn

So the other day I saw someone who did a post like this and thought why not, I might as well do one, even if I can't afford it I can still day dream, right?  My dream barn would be open and spacious, I love the wood look and how natural it appears to be but can also look really fancy/sophisticated. I also like the idea of the stables being in a U shape with doors and windows facing inwards so all the horses can see each other. I love the stable image above, I love how lit up they are the wooden look to them and the way the stable doors are. I'd also like it so that some of the stables had runs going out the back so that the horse could choose whether to be inside or outside. I also really like how the bottom of the stable walls are a stone wall.  If the stalls were inside I'd love them to look like this, I again love the wood look but I also really like how open everything is. I like how everyone can see everything and how it has the chance for the horses...
