Am all shopped out. Badminton was lovely on a Fri, although def not as many bargains as on a Sunday so think will revert back to Sunday next year. Major plus point about a Fri is that the toilets were reasonably clean, no queues and there was toilet paper in them so there were some big benefits to going on a Fri too.
Got there nice and easy, first stall and caught up with an old Uni friend. Was actually REALLY nice to see her as haven't seen her in real life since we left Uni.
Had no coat, doh so the first thing I bought was a coat. £56 down to £35. Ariat, lovely. I really really tried to get the £110 and £120 (down to £20!!!) to look nice on me but the £35 one just won hands down every time so I bought that and didn't actually take it off all day!
Also bought QuickBraid spray, or something like that, tack cleaning stuff, 3 x dog beds (they chew them, they die!) and some VERY expensive bloody spur straps from Classic Dressage, WHY did I want brown boots and brown straps to go with them?! Think that was actually it other than food!
Cleaning tack tomorrow and am seriously regretting booking in for dressage tomorrow. Feel totally and compeltely and utterly unprepared!!

The boring rambles of a wanna be Dressage Queen.
The Obligatory About Me
I never really know what to write in these things. I mean, do you REALLY want to know how old I am? Do you REALLY want to know where I live?
I would imagine you don't really give two hoots!
But for those of you who do I am a 29yr old in the West Midlands, I have an artist/graphic designer OH whom I love very much, I have a job I love, I have a fantastic supportive family and I have my dream horse.
T-Jay is a 17h RIDxTB. He's now 11yrs old and I've owned him since he was just 2. We've been through many many pitfalls and bad patches but we're finally getting there. The close deaths of my 2 older horses in 2007 seemed to have made him finally grow up.
We are currently competing at Novice at affiliated and hoping to dip our toes in at Elementary in the not too distant future.
I set this blog up to chart our journey to affiliated dressage but we achieved that quickly so now it's just my ramblings.
The other horse that I refer to in here is my mum's pony, he's a 14h cob, 5 yrs old and another one who wasn't everyone's cup of tea when he was younger but has come good.
