Crikey, it has been soooooo windy for 5 whole days, the horses have been very sharp. I mainly rode on the school, even my jumps were blowing down. Monty went to Moores Farm on Sunday, Louise Calverley hired a course of show jumps and invited me along. It was a hectic morning as I jumped Icon in 2 classes at Hartpury (4 faults in the Foxhunter 1.20m) and then came home to change horses and arrived at Moores farm by 12 midday. Monty was a bit muddy as no time to groom, he behaved really well, standing quietly while Louise cantered and jumped her horse. Then Monty jumped a course of small show jumps and quite a big XC filler......well 2'3" looks big on a 4 year old! They have a new surface at Moores farm and it is superb.
I have bought a second hand hat silk for hacking off ebay for £2. Needed a newer one, since my friend Joy said my old one looked like I had a dead cat on my head. See Picture, I had mended it so much it does look a bit odd, I suppose.
I had a rejection letter from Countrywide Farmers who I wrote to asking if they would be interested in supporting my horses this year.....it is hilarious as it finishes by wishing me luck with my fund raising Ball ! Er What! Back to Dodson and Horrell feeds I think!!!
Meanwhile Icon is off to choose his black tie and I think Felix has asked Hedgerow if she would like to go with him. Picture to follow if I can persuade Hedgerow into a dress.
My main sponsor www.payrollsuk.com would never make an error like that.
