Back in the saddle (Feb-Apr 07)

All rested and repaired we had a go at pairs dressage with Brian and Blue and gained our first fancy ribbon for dressage - 3rd place!

Poor Geoffrey was subjected to far too much dressage and went on strike with a splint. Luckily, I could pretend to like dressage for a bit longer and avoid jumping with Miss Diane lending me Tommie Tom for another dressage test. Unfortunately for Geoffrey this fuelled my desire to do more dressage because we placed 3rd.

But fun was back on the horizon with a capital F when we accompanied Hugo to Larkhill. Little Geoffrey couldn't believe how far the fields went on for and got himself far too excited.

Our second outing was to Hall Place with more dressage. Best quote from the judge: 'Ride to a slower rhythm, lovely pony and it could be a lot better'.
