A bit of a last minute decision I decided - since the previous showjumping we entered was cancelled - we may as well enter the show at the weekend and have a pop round the 90cm. I brought Eva in a bit too early as there was no way of telling what time our class … Continue reading Unaffiliated Showjumping ||September ’18
Stable Shuffle, a Storm & a Hack
We've had a bit of a shuffle before winter comes in meaning that Eva and I are now in a new barn. The new barn is a little bit more open and Eva can now see other horses opposite her.
