Took Honey to a show that i usually go to, and this is the place that supposedly "cursed" me, because ive never done well at this show!
Went in the 2ft3 clear round, as a "starter" course, for me, not for her.
Went clear in that, and i was >:D< Like that!
Then i could either do another clear round or go into the 2ft6, qualifier for the UK Ride & Relax, and we got a clear in the first round :D, Then we were 2nd from last in the jump off, so that was a good thing, see what turns people were taking, and if they had a good time or not,
(This is what happened!) My turn came and went over number one, cantered to number two, turned Honey in the air and came to the double (number four), slowed her down into a steadier canter, jumped A then B, literally galloped to number 5, it was a triple bar so i had to get my striding right otherwise we would have it down, or run through it, cleared it, cantered through a gap, done a lovely sweep round the corner to number 7A cleared that, and ONE, TWO, THREE strides to B, rattled that, luckily it stayed, and then zoomed round the corner to number 8, "steady..steady..Go!", and we cleared the jump off!! :D
(over the tannoy) : That was a lovely clear by Ella & Mia Cavalla, In a time of 43.01, Not quite fast enough to beat Blah Blah Blah, puts you in 4th place!
I couldnt believe it.. i came 4th!! :D
Mum took some videos from the digi camera, and dad is meant to be buying one of those leads thats connects from digi camera to computer, so when he gets it will show you the video :D
