Horses & Plans - do they ever work?!

So... first of all where have the last 4 weeks gone - in a flash is all I can say! Our work has been going strong  with Pip and I getting fitter every week. Last weekend we went to Patchetts for our last competition before Hartpury - anther para comp - this time the KBIS qualifier for the BD National Championships in September - one of only 4 throughout the country! I was very pleased with Pip while - although he surprised us all by being quite spooky in the warm up test  - he went the best he has gone so far in the qualifier and came 3rd in some very strong competition with a good percentage too! Deciding we would give him an easy week - and booking Gill Maybury to give him a check over before Hartpury - he had a few days off and then was down for some hacking... but in true Brodie spirit a plastic bag in the hedge saw Pip jumping into the ditch with Miranda - a tremendous shock for all concerned! It seems no great harm done to Miranda or Pip but another visit from Gill to put things right has meant that I have had to cancel my lesson with Andrew. More plans sent awry for the following week when I learned that although I had been lucky enough to get Olympic test event tickets for the XC and para dressage demonstration it meant another change of plans with my next lesson with Andrew - things not going too well on that front and I am feeling a bit panicky to say the least at the last minute changes to plans  in the final stages - at least Miranda has been keeping me on the straight and narrow with her twice weekly lessons which are bringing me and Pip on as a partnership.   Suddenly it is all go  with only 2 weeks to Hartpury now -  my music routine  is in very basic form and needing more than just a few finishing touches - I think I will be very busy when I finally get to ride Pip again in a few days following his treatment. But - can't wait for Hartpury!!!
