I did the 2'0 and the 2'3---yes, diddy i know, but we didn't have much experience with courses. next time i'm aiming for 2'6 :D
So got there and warmed up well, cantered, popped a few practice fences. Noticed there was a clear round jumping so toodled into that and i got a clear round! Miniscule jumps but it was very fun and boosted my confidence.
Then went into the 2'0, and unfortunatly i knocked a plank down because Bumble decided to poo on the way to it ::rollseyes:: it's all that grass she stuffs!!
So, i didn't get placed in that one.
Then i do the 2'3 and i get a clear round and for a little while i was the leader. Overall i came 3rd place and i was really chuffed! Seeing as i've only ever done a proper jumping round 4 times, the first time knocking and refusing a few jumps, the 2nd time being eliminated, i was super pleased.
Ok, enough of my rambling, onto the pictures!

Hacking on the way there

And I love Bumble. I forget, what type of horse is she? Her mane makes me happy.

She's a cob, which is more of a type than a breeed. Just generally hairy and stocky.
She's usually clipped out but we haven't gotten round to it yet o she has a cool SJ-er mane for now :P

She won't tolerate anything too small, doesn't even put any effort into it if its not higher than 1'9!
