Girlie lunch

Started with hill and pole work today with Rem to encourage him to bend his hocks and to strengthen and use his back-end more. Trudi and Lydia came over and we went for a girlie lunch out as a belated birthday pressy. Thanks, Trudi, I had a lovely time and thanks Lydia for making me feel like a kid again, although my aching bod is certainly reminding me of my age now!!

Birthday....

Had a lovely day yesterday for my birthday! Bev and a few other friends came round, we were supposed to have a  bbq, but, typically, it was a dull, overcast day. It didn't matter though, we had a good time and Jim made us a lovely meal. My mum and dad came on the webcam which pretty much made my day.
My best friend from childhood, Luan,  has recently got back in touch with me and she sent me a cd with 'tunes from memory lane' and they certainly did bring back a few! Heart wrenching and heart warming all at the same time - I shed a few tears, wonderful though!
We've got the electrician in today and the builders return tomorrow, so it's going to be all go for the next few weeks.
A short ridden session with Remy in the school today, he's such a good boy. Got to grade the school this afternoon.
