    Been a bit 'missing' but active. The bad news is shoulder has progressed from being dislocated and injured to a frozen (freezing) shoulder. Now slowly losing the mobility in it. Bit despairing. Hurts and affecting sleep.
    Good news is Most Handsome had a go at dressage on Saturday and won his first class. What a star. Unfortunately he decided to put his hoof down most firmly about doing a second test and refused to co-operate. Am most proud of myself as part way through I thought about retiring and then decided to just stick with it and I rode him through the strops. So whilst most people congratulated me on winning I was actually most proud of doing well in the second class, we might have come near the bottom - but - I faced a nervous wobble and continued :j


    Any ideas on quickly unfreezing shoulders most appreciated though as that is getting me down.
    Made it to mortgage free but what a muddle that became

    In the event the proverbial hits the fan then co-habitees are better stashing their cash than being mortgage free !!

    Well done on the show! :) Especially the second class - it can be so tempting to call it a day rather than stick it out.

    I hope you get relief for your shoulder soon. :(

    Don't know anything about the frozen shoulder issue, sorry :( it sounds awful.

    I can understand being most proud of the second lot of dressage you did - thats a huge accomplishment, congratulations :)

    Thank you all so much for the kind words.
    Lack of posting explained by a busy week, Mr Watty being away and good friend falling off horse and being dumped by boyfriend all on same day. Trailing over to check on her, huge A&E waits etc have just soaked up week. Fortunately she is fine.
    Have managed to update work computer accounts package so can finally pay self later today, only you lot on here would understand the thrill of working the "money savings pots" out and planning a catch up with the virtual world on here later too.
    First, off to get a pair of boots repaired and have a lunch out with Mr Watty
    And thanks for kind words re shoulder. Only 30 months or so and shoulder should fix itself :(
