little bit scared, LOT excited

[teabiscuit]

Finnster and Bonnie are going on a fun ride with :eek: jumps:eek:
My brother is riding Bonnie, I will be riding Finnster and my brothers girlfriend will be on Little Lad.
they are Mum (Bonnie) and full brothers (Finn and Little Lad) so it's a family trip out :D
hopefully post pictures on Monday if still in one piece :) :D

[Imp]

Aww, that sounds brilliant! Lucky you, I can't wait to be able to go out in company again :D

I'll watch out for the pictures :D

[Peanut]

You'll have a FANTASTIC time - lucky you! Enjoy every moment and bring back some piccies to show us. :p

[Mimi + Me]

Oh lucky you (I'm just a teeny bit jealous because that was my one aim this year and I still haven't got to one yet :(). Hope you all enjoy it and have lots of FUN, because that's what a fun ride's about isn't it :p

[teabiscuit]

thanks everyone. I shall be quite nervous, this is the first step to getting out and about (well, after lessons).
after this my goal will be a local dressage test :eek: :eek: *cue music from the shower scene in Phsycho*
but that is for the future;)

[Little Dolphins]

Have a fab time, T'biscuit, and well done YOU for venturing out. I'm impressed:) :)

Just the mention of a dressage test brings me out in a cold sweat. :eek: That's when you'll need the "little liquid refreshment". ;)

Great picture of three beautiful horses.

[teabiscuit]

why thankyou Peanut :)
maybe i'll put the dressage comp off til next year, it is a very very scarey thought.

[cazrider]

All the best Teabiscuit. You'll love it.:D

Funny, my three ambitions for this year were:

1. Take Sennie away for the weekend... done:)
2. Do a fun ride.... done:)
3. Do a dressage test....still not done it.:( :rolleyes:

I may well be in the next year thing as well. :( I keep saying i'll do it indoors over the winter. Ha!

BTW Lovely pic of the three horses teabiscuit.

[RobaDob]

Wicked, have fun, and i hope to see some pics :p ;)

we all had a great time- no pictures though, may get a photo later from the guy hanging round taking pictures.
the horses were to sparkly and excited for us to take pictures at first and by the time they'de calmed down, we were to knackered to take pictures :D
we all did some jumps, they had tiny ones that you could do from a standstill if your horse got spooked by them so it was an ideal practice for finnster and bonnie. Little lad did the bigger jumps donchaknow:)
bonnie stood on my foot but apart from that no problems, they were gooood boys and girls :)
the scenery was beautiful, the weather gorgeous.
big grin from ear to ear :D :D

[Peanut]

So glad you had a good time - can't wait to see the pictures. :)

[Little Dolphins]

Well done, glad you had a great time!

[teabiscuit]

thanks Peanut and LD. i want to do another one next week, will need an energy boost and new knees :D

3. Do a dressage test....still not done it.:( :rolleyes:

I may well be in the next year thing as well. :( I keep saying i'll do it indoors over the winter. Ha!

.
why is it so very scarey :eek: :confused:

[The Flying Irishman]

Your first two are ambitions of mine too, which I have yet to do. I’m fed up on not having any transport to get anywhere, I’m thinking of buying shares in a horsebox with someone else from my yard, then I won’t have any excuse not to get out and about a bit more!

P.S. The third one is not something I would ever want to do, well not on a horse like mine who dislikes schooling so much, unless there’s a dressage test where you plod in, halt and salute at X, turn round and amble out again!!:p

[Dummer&Drummer]

love the picture :)

I've been looking for a walk and trot one as there's no way he could do a well schooled looking canter (or any canter in fact:rolleyes: ) in the school for a prelim. I can recommend the first two though.:D

[teabiscuit]

thanking you D&D they do look rather shiney and cute there don't they :D :D
The hosses not the folks :D
CR and EG
why is a dressage test a fate worse than death? it's not the actual test itself, i am not sure why i dread it soooo much!

[Whatanejit]

Fantastic!

Delighted you had a great day and it wasn't too nerve wrecking!

Well done!
