So here it is.... Epworth 90cms ODE!!! Well, today was a mission of two things. Number 1 was a confidence boost before our regional final in two weeks and Number 2 was to get inside the time after being told my horse didn't make the time at Frickley because he was FAT!! I was even... Continue Reading →
So here it is.... Pat, Daddy Carrot and I headed to Frickley Park today for the BE90. Yesterday's course walk left me feeling oddly excited to get back out and doing this sport again, I felt 75% excitement and only 25% terror after walking the somewhat boggy going of the XC course. We went to... Continue Reading →
WELL.... What a day!!! Today I have made the most valuable investment of my life (Pat excluded - he is family and doesn't count) in more ways than one. I expect you all remember the post I did a few weeks ago about having THAT exciting phone call but not being quite ready to divulge... Continue Reading →

So here it is, Number 2! The late entry into the BE90 at Bovington, Dorset (RAC Saddle Club Bovington) on Easter bank holiday weekend was our challenge. Now for anyone that knows me, I'm not overly keen on jumping around somewhere that I'm not overly familiar with, stupid eh?! But I like to have had... Continue Reading →
So here it is..... number 1. The first one of 2017!! Back to Friday, I was nervous as hell. Having to sit in a quiet office all day, not overly busy, made my nerves worse. I had so much to do post 4.30pm and I was getting increasingly tittery about wanting to run out the... Continue Reading →
WIMPY Eventing is a terrifying thing, when you're scared out of your bloody mind and rely heavily on booze and Imodium supplies to keep you in check, something has to have your back. I am delighted to announce that from March 2017; I, the Wimpiest Eventer that ever trotted the earth, will be the VERY... Continue Reading →
