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

  2. 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

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,
