Sorry we have been a bit quiet but what a manic two weeks it’s been !
1,300 miles driven 8 different venues, 5 different hotels, full range of delivery from coach education sessions, assessing and assessor training, presenting and army team coaching.
Somehow managed to also squeeze in the beautiful Oakring boy’s festival finals 👏🥂where they put up a great fight and tried so hard. But I won’t lie, a little disappointed with my own performance and so didn’t achieve a secret goal I had set for myself, but to be in the top ten in massive classes on the stunning Santino in both his finals is so consistent and simply fantastic ! We seem to have split the judges as he was in podium place in both tests with two judges but not the 3rd judge 🙈 his older brother D’Arcy was just an absolute delight to ride but just a bit outclassed this time.
The last few weeks have not been the most ideal preparation for this championship , but all great fun and love my horses so much and the Oakring brothers had a fab day out and that’s all that matters.
Now in Scotland for the next big adventure ……watch this space 👀

What a weekend !!! 🎁😉🤣🎁🤣🦄
Happy birthday to the best friend and partner in crime Emma Leeding never laughed so much ! And then to Lynne Ashley and my self for being top cake makers …no idea why Emma makes such a big deal of doing it !!
Saturday was a fabulous day supporting the U18s at shelford, watching small acorns turning to mighty oaks ! Well done to so many of my clients all doing so well, then to top it all off Emma’s Viaduct went out today and started to show his true understanding of the transition from racehorse to sport horse and produced a 28.8 dressage with just an annoying pole that cost him the win but wow what a class little horse, still finished 4th he really is starting to jump like a pro ! Love being allowed to ride and compete him
Just now. Onwards and upwards with him now, he’s got a very exciting future ahead of him.
What a great weekend, but also so sad losing a wonderful fellow event rider but I know she would want us all
To carry on doing what we love doing 💔💜❤️ live life to the full.
This is stood still, 🌬️ couldn’t go for a quick swim as my clothes would have blown away !!! Crazy weather, I did go in the sea but had to hold my clothes so no actual swimming !!
Do love to try and swim at every venue I visit when working……irrespective of time of year 🤪 failed today but maybe first thing tomorrow ?
amazing country we live in
