We went there together at 11 from IC..set up the dressage arena (definitely NEED to bring measuring tape nxt time!!!)..warm Phoebe up (she was unusually skittish and jittery..)..scribed for d judge (Sheena, lives in New Forest, friend of Jess)..lunch is LOVELY!!...dressage ran from 1-3ish...Filippa help counting the scores..Kat sort out d riders in warm-up arena... at 3.30ish warm Black Jack for jumping!! Kerry set up the course..abt 70-90cm..easy course.. a SUPERB round with him!! v.fwd. and i just let my instinct took over and we flew over the jumps! man, did I miss those adrenaline rush u get everytime u just completed a perfect round in a perfect harmony wit ur horse!!! :) the BEST feeling in the world!!!!!!!

Help a bit wit setting up d jumping...watch jumpers..poor Wieland fell off!! but he's ok..GInger was so strong, but Sarah managed her just fine luckily...Olivia did a lovely clear round on BJ (see, he IS lovely!!)..
