I have a horse on loan..which is a bit like burning five pound notes but more fun, mostly, and a lot more messy ...and smelly....and...oh well anyway.
Last week we won the local Riding Club dressage competition - which had become a bit of a mission after this comment from the AB the day before;
"there is still time to pull out of the dressage competition Mum, I mean, you don't know the test very well and you don't want to look like a muppet!"
Needless to say the large red rosette saying "1st" is now stuck in the MIDDLE of the kitchen notice board.
So tomorrow - I am going to attempt to ride around a cross country course for the fist time in ten years. If there is an illegilble post from an intensive care unit on dodgy hospital wi-fi on Monday you will know that the attempt went horribly wrong. I shall endeavour to fall on my arse and not my head but we shall see!

Horses are the devils pets.

blimey! I'm in stereo.
Katie the horse is lovely - she is the Barbie horse come to life and likes having her nails done and her hair plaited and having a bath. And gets all panic stricken at big jumps and jumps far too high!
