It was a super day, I really enjoyed it. Both the speakers were great, particularly Louise - very down to earth and easy to speak to.
Fee it was good to see you again though I didn't get to speak (had to look twice to make sure it was you with a bay mare!) and ribrabs, only realised who you were after you'd gone or I would have said hello!

A big thank you Susan and 'steward' Andrew from me and Joanna. We thoroughly enjoyed being in with the guinea pigs. Ian was very good and a few tips from him hopefully will be of benefit to us all.
I'm now craving a show saddle for Kai because what a difference in his appearance. I can't remember what make it was so if any one can help please let me know or even if they have an unused one I could buy I would be gratefull

Many thanks to all who came to the clinic ;D I had a great day too, very pleased with my girl ;D she has to be the most laid back mare I have ever had, she really enjoyed her rare day out ;D Ian was great to listen to and when he took a horse he always got that "extra" bit out of them, and all in a calm manner. Louise, wow what an amazing rider in total harmony with the horse. I watched her at towerlands in the ridden class last year on her mothers beautiful grey mare and had a lump in my throat. And all the tips she gave our horses, amazing how small things can change the appearance and going of our horses. I now cant wait for the first shows of the year, and finally getting over this horrendous winter  . It was so nice to blow the cobwebs off all my show stuff and get Estina primped for the clinic. Wishing everyone all the very best for 2010 season and hope that everyone who was at the clinic got some extra ringcraft tips Susan |
