well what a week!

i was busy cos i was working on a tradestand so didnt get to see a lot, but what i did see made it worth it!

literally bumped into carl hester *oops* and geoff billington (god im so clumsy walking into people :o) and spoke to the swedish rider that was in the kur on saturday evening (was scored harshly IMO, he did a better test than kyra k and anky!)

saw a couple of tests on wednesday (team grand prix i think :confused:) and the puissance on the gala night (2 whitakers came joint first cant remember which ones sorry) jumping 7'3 and all of the kur on saturday night (:eek: amazing!) then the jumping at the weekend which was massive to say the least!

erm so yeah no pictures (i know i know) but seeing that horse in the flesh was just something else- no words can describe it.

whos off to kentucky next year for the world equestrian games :p

Sorry couldn't afford to go.

I watched a bit on tele. What I want to know is whilst watching the showjumping someone came in with an extra bit on the martingale. It was black/brown and kind of triangle shaped. Infront of the chest area. Does anyone know what it was or what it does. Sorry its a bit vague I know.
