My adventures with Belle as we bumble our way through low level Eventing
There are loads of things I love about the location of my livery yard, but unfortunately the off-road hacking isn’t one of them.

There’s definitely nowhere you can go for a good gallop!
So, I still can’t believe it, but… we actually managed to WIN our section in our last One Day Event of the season with LandS Eventing at Offchurch Bury on Saturday, with a 20.5 dressage and double clear! Yep, that’s right! For the first time in the two and a half years I’ve owned Belle, we’ve actually won something!!! The best day ever!!

*When I say excited, I actually mean pretty nervous. Continue reading “Moreton Morrell here we come – how exciting.”
