Hello F'list! I am still alive ;) I have been... well not even that busy and I keep (as ever) MEANING to post but never quite getting to it.
However I have finally done something exciting to post about - gone to pony camp!!
Except pony camp was a lot of hard work and riding and horse stuff and drinking wine later and I am too sleepy to post coherently. So instead, pictures!






ziggy in her new quarters


Extension!



Jumping baaaby jumps (it still FEELS big)



Note jumps were small but we were going Fast. There was no breeze, that is all Impulsion!
(also the jumps DID get bigger, but they were taking photos elsewhere by then)



Are we Small, or Far Away?



Me and the lovely judith (who did all the driving to get us there) about to go for our final lesson. Horses not impressed with this plan.



Tired (and probably fed up with all this working) horses looking for an escape route



Necarne is a very very beautiful place




Will try to post more comprehensive post tomorrow, when I may have Moar Brane (aslo I want to record a lot of what we did and the technical parts we were taught before i forget it all).

In summary, pony camp = AWESOME.

jumping stuff FAST! We did jump bigger stuff too, that was just the Getting The Right Canter and Generating Impulsion part ;p

(which was bloody hard on a baking hot day, the smell around us would not have been Perfume ;p)

she does not. This has been conclusively proven.

I smell of Attar of Roses.

She smells of Gone Off Front Bottom.

Welcome back.

I do so hope that Pony Camp only cost 25 quid.


Looks like you had fun there.

Alas it cost considerably more ;p but we did get 3 days there and lots of lessons and Talks and tasty food etc. Also, a great deal of fun!

(no elephants tho ;p)
