We've done it, our first shows!! We had the first last saturday and came fifth and came second yesterday at the Border Union!! Best bit is, we're actually enjoying it, it's not as terrifying as I thought, look am smiling lol We had a lot of interesting acrobatics going on before the class at the first show, a certain young pony managed to kick ma butt when i stopped concentrating on him and spoke to jason for a minute lol So was still very nervous about how we'd do in the ring but once we were in he settled right down and got on with his job like an old hand and was actually one of the best behaved in there bless him! It was a mixed 1/2/3 yr old class with some very nice welshies in, a waxwing pony won it but i think i was the most delighted person there hee hee ;D, was soo proud of the littl'un Being a good boy, watching the others trot up! err...not being so good but i love it lol Yesterday he was a little star, he came off the trailer like an old pro, no silly buggers, even when a foal came past leaping around, he was so good, am chuffed to bits!! doing a better job!! clever darlin! There's a huge thank you to be said to Sarah (daftmare) for all the help and support given over the last few weeks, keeping me right every step of the way with great advice and encouragement, you're a star!!!
