    It was good thanks. A little shambolic but she got an hour with a really great instructor jumping. No falling off and a couple of clear rounds. A couple of fly bucks from naughty pony plops which didnt unseat her.

    "Shall we just get rid of the carpet in our bedroom while we're spring cleaning and just have floorboards and a rug"


    Cue tons of disintegrated ancient carpet underlay covering our house, dog and children in a similar (but hopefully less fatal) manner to the ash of Pompeii.

    I need a drink!!

    Had to borrow Mum's vac in the end. The rug was purchased ages ago. Its a big red persian job secondhand.

    Looks ok and discovered a sweet little tiled hearth in brown majolica.

    Hi and thanks.x

    Very pleased with ponyplops today. A military jet flew over very loud and low and she looked at me to see if she should be scared or not. I said it was ok and she was fine.
    I love the purity of animals.

    GCSE results tomorrow. I am not expecting good news if I am any judge of the amount of revision being done.
