The exciting news is that we are still planning on buying a towing vehicle and trailer before the spring and DH and I are on the lookout for some pleasure rides (sounds so rude doesn't it?) to go on. I am also hoping to join the local Riding Club and actually get some competing done this year.
In view of this, my enthusiasm has multiplied by about a thousand and I even rode my little mare in the (outdoor) school in the gales yesterday, which was interesting.
With our new strict routine, I manged 2 1/2 hours at the yard yesterday which was plenty of time to get all the usual jobs done, have a short ride and (this is the exciting bit!) clean some tack! (ok, one bridle, but it is a start!) Long may this last.
When I am a bit more organised I plan to get some pictures of the beasts onto here, you never know they may even be wearing clean tack.
One bridle down, how many to go?
ReplyDeleteI miss riding, will have to kick my arse and spend my money on a lesson or ten this year, haven't ridden in ages

Well, I have two full bridles that get worn for riding, one lunging bridle, an assortment of leather bits and pieces that I really need to sort, two full saddles and a racing riding out saddle I ought to clean up and try to sell as it is no longer needed. So erm, yeah, a fair bit to do!
