Dressage Diva

Oh My Goodness. There's a Dressage competition at our yard on Monday - yes - Monday - that is this coming Monday. I've been thinking about entering - and then  was late with my entry - so that was that then - can't do it (phew - let's all breathe a huge sigh of relief).  But - NO - Denise came to me this morning to tell me that she still had spaces - so I can do it after all!!!!!

Sh*t Sh*t Sh*t - that means the next five days of practice - grooming - mane pulling (and therefore nearly getting kicked to death when we get to the sensitive bit down near her shoulders) and gently persuading reluctant horse to work nicely and not go bombing off when we ask for the canter.

I have no clue why I put myself through this - all for four and a half minutes of competition - but at least the last few times I've done it I haven't come last!!!

Fingers crossed then x
