Can't believe how close we are to the end of the year doesnt seem like 2 minutes has past since last christmas. We've done a lot with the ponies this year though probably not as much showing as previous years especially with Rory who has been a bit of a jekyll and hyde charactor to ride this year. Had an absolutely fab lesson on Pait who tried her heart out for me (good job as she was a little bugger to hack at the weekend) and sat chatting to my insttructor L who told me to just think back to how much she has improved this year. Can't wait to get her out in 2016 though I need to start putting the fitness work in now. Rory is booked for a tooth filling in Jan so don't know yet how much work he will do Jan/Feb so may be a bit later to get him show ready (saying that he's naturally a lot fitter than Pait as hes such a stress-head) Duke is just doing little bits of hacking to keep the ridden lark fresh in his mind and will wait til the summer to get stuck into him.
