Snip's Diary

Snip's Diary September 2008 Snip

Hello everyone, it's back to school for you lot this week and a nice rest for us! For a couple of weeks anyhow. If you've read the news page you'll know that it's going to be pretty busy with shows, courses and lots of lovely dressing up for Halloween next month!

I've got a few good ideas for costumes. I saw Fantasy, May and Magic stamping in from the field the other day covered in mud and thought instantly of the Thestrals from Harry Potter. Tee hee! Bog-beasts from the bottom of the field. I don't think they'd win any prizes for that though. Thomas reckons he'd look very pretty if he had a wizard's hat and some silver stars velcroed onto him and Flora says that she wants to be a unicorn...

The summer jumping has been quite interesting to watch from my field. I'm looking forward to the dressage Sundays too. That should be very entertaining. I think some disciplined and precise school movements are exactly what some of us need to practice. It's all very well being able to bounce about over obstacles willy-nilly but you need to be able to get your legs organised if you're going to beat the clock!

I've just realised that this is the first birthday of Snip's Diary! I've been writing to you for over a year now! Hope you're enjoying it as much as I am.

See you all next month, love snip's hoofprint
