It was lovely to meet you all and your beautiful horses. What a day! ETA the weather was perfect all day. It was torrential rain as we we left in the morning and as I parked my car last night at home the heavens opened, but the sun shone on the Scotnorth Festival of the Exracehorse

Sounds like you all did a fantastic job with your horse and it was a brilliant day! Well done to Lisa and everyone concerned with the organising Now all I ask is that you hurry up with the piccys so that those of us who couldn't be there can see what we missed!

Well done all! All the horses looked amazing and are a total to credit to each and every one of you! Very well done to the winners and the crazy eventers the day before! As they say "There's a tea party at Mothers, and a good time shall be had by all!" (Don't worry, I am about one in ten thousand people who understand that )

This was only my second Scotnorth event and I have to say what a fantastic event it was.
I met loads of really nice people - apologies for those names I don't know but spent ages talking to in the line up as we were there for a while waiting to do our individual shows!
My horse (Morteeno or Stooshie as he is known as - aptly named!!) was very very naughty in the go round - in fact he had a tantrum before we even got in to the ring and managed to hit me in the face with his bit!! He precedded to get worse as the show went on - he doesn't like horses cantering around about him so you can imagine what happened when all 22 of us started cantering at the same time!! He did a nice individual show as he had settled by then.
We then went in to the in-hand class and came second. Hello to valerief - hope you are still enjoying the memories of your sucess - it was nice meeting you and your lovely horse.
I have managed to post some photos into my signature - the first 2 are from Sunday. My friend came along for the day and took 1000 photos of me - yes that was 1000 I said!!! He is in the process of burning them on to a disc so will have a look at them all and i'll post any that I find of those of you who were there too.

Hi Morteeno, Just want to say a big well done from me for managing to sit out Stooshie's antics, i was beside you for most of it and i have to say you must have had superglue on that saddle as i would have been on the floor within 5 secs. You handle him brilliantly and he's a lovely boy. Think you were behind me when the steward said "Canter on" and at the same time i think we both loudly said I've never done anything like that before so it was all a bit of an experience, Flash seemed to be ok in the group bit but pretty bad in the individual lol. It was a great day though and nice to have met you. Hope your face is ok . Well done again

well done everyone, what a great day it was, the standard of turnout was amazing, how one wnner was chosen I will never know as each and everyone of them would have been deserved winners. Lisa- Thanks for allowing me to show your loveley big man in the in hand class, he is just such a gentleman. Lovely to meet up with some old friends and make new ones, it was a great weekend.
