It was quite interesting designing them myself, since never done anything similar, so will be interesting to see how they look like when they arrive in a few days time.
Also I am making a video with Wiola from the Aspire Equestrian riding academy http://www.aspire-equestrian.com/. We have an outline of what we want to do and will hopefully get the first part filmed tomorrow. We have been kindly given the lovely horses of Craig Nicolai (NZ international eventer) and her partner Abby (based in Cane End outside Reading http://caneendstud.weebly.com/) to play with. They come in different shapes and sizes, so should be few interesting videos coming out soon!! Looking forward to them already.
Here is my regular ride, Vatican at Cane End, he belongs to Abby. He is a big boy between 17hh and 18hh and has his moments of being... hmm... rather wild I think to put it mildly. :D But regardless of how he is, he is my special boy and I love him to bits. We go on nice hacks (and yes he is scared of everything most days, particularly the bins) and I school him when I get a burst of motivation. He is not keen on schooling or the school, he had an accident few years ago and broke his pelvis and never really got back to his former glory. But when you get his head in gear (this is where you need a patience of a saint) he is amazing to ride, real schoolmaster and super duper sensitive.

I will have a busy two weeks ahead since have 3 dogs in the house. A lovely Jack Russell Finn, who we fostered for a charity little while back, has come to stay here while his owners are on holiday. So two terriers and one collie in the house are sure to keep me on my toes!!
