So, tomorrows my stage 1 :eek: ahhh!!
I have shuved it to the back of my mind, ive been doing my ASs, then went on a field trip straight away, so have only had 2 days to go through everything :rolleyes: oops! Im quietly confident about the riding, and the only thing i really need to remind myself of is feeding.
Anyway, does anyone have any useful tips to remember that im likely to forget from nerves??? I know ill forget silly things, like tying the horse up to skip out, things you never do when your working, you only do infront of examiners :p
Id REALLY appreciate any help :D

You'll be fine, the examiners are really friendly and chatty so that'll calm your nerves.
Just think before you answer dont rush your questions otherwise you may end up getting tongue tied and in a muddle.
The day will go quickly so just think this time tomorrow you'll be telling us its all over

Thank you guys :D Ah, well its over :D and it went ok :D :D The examiners were nice and i felt most of them did actually want to pass you :D Also the person taking the riding used to teach at my yard so it was nice to see a familiar face :D
Ahh, cant wait to get the results now :D

Horsesaddle- thanks for asking :D It was a while ago and yes I passed!! :D They were very nice, I got one mistake written down, and that was when i looked at the horses hoof, to see whether the clenches were risen i patted down the straw next to the hoof to show the examiner- apparently that was dangerous, as the horse could have trodden on my hand!!
I did my riding and road safety the other day and passed that, so when I eventually get round to it ill do my stage 2 :D
