thanks, yes I'm very happy with Curly.
My mum got some pics of Kate and you she will email them to you.

Yes, we're ok...The closest towns/suburbs to the north of where our boys are were on high alert/ember attack but we were completely missed, thank goodness. We do know people who have lost their house etc and it's been a pretty harrowing week...Now it's just extremely smoky - very unpleasant.

Sorry to hear about Sadie, very sad for you, Kate and the kids - hopefully this is the end of your bad run. Are she and Dusty resting together? Is everyone else ok? Give the kids a hug from me.

I have been following Rebecca Franklin's "Ash Wednesday" forum updates every few hours. You have a lot of people from all over the world worried sick about the fires, the people, the animals. It is a main topic of discussion in our Canadian barn.
As my non-horsey husband pointed out, this is when you really know you are part of a community.
I hope this is quick to pass.

Drop and give me 20! Or else i will get mum onto you with her jockey whip! haha
Well that sounds like fun!
Nah fair enough, i hate riding in hot whether! You can only really do light work when its hot anyway.
I hate not being able to ride Meco. Its just not the same riding the little ponies. (thought they do need work... mum) :D
I have just got myself a new dressage saddle last thursday (New 2nd hand, in really good nick, paid $1200 all together for it), i got a new jumping saddle for christmas and my horse goes and gets a nail up his foot, has me all hopeful while he is looking better then gets it infected again (its become almost like an absus (sp?))
I have the state dressage champs soon too... oh well we have paid entry fees (some $150 odd) so we might as well go along for the ride(s). Even if his topline (which i/we were just starting to get looking nice) is almost completely non-exsistant! But I think we're only doing prelim/novice, thank goodness! lol

Hows the training going? (for the event)

At 2:10am on January 29, 2009, Lainie said…: Are you guys all broiled like steaks in this weather? Just got back from having 2 ponies shod...I nearly collapsed walking them back to the paddock. SO hot.

At 1pm, my car temp thingy said 49 in the sun. Hate to think what you are getting. Hope you have cool water and ice on hand.

At 4:10pm on January 28, 2009, Roxy said…: Oh yes I agree. Although it is not difficult to work here as a "coach" with absolutely no qualifications at all. It is such a costly venture to attain the certificate I can understand why many people skip it. It is a shame, because there are so many talented people that have much to offer, but don't get the support of the governing body because they don't have the dough to put into it. I only went ahead with the certification process because of legal issues and insurance. I do think it pays off in the long run, but dang that upfront expendature is far out!

At 5:33am on January 26, 2009, Lainie said…: Next? Come next? I ain't never coming back if you got BIIIIIG jumping horsies LOL! Pics, please...does this mean you'll have us over 1.50m? :D

Sad about Bubba, is he going to nearby? but yes, bring on a truck, how exciting :)

Poor LURCH...although you know, he probably hired "hit eagles" to take out the chooks :D

At 4:17am on January 26, 2009, Lainie said…: Hey there Geoff!

Gee, look at that spunky boy (the big orange one lol) He is such a good boy, I can't wait to come back!

Have you ridden Handsome George recently? He hasn't been killed and eaten by the chickens yet, I hope??

Can't wait for more pics to go up, keep em coming :)

Amber and I rode at the beach on Friday and it was a buzz. Thanks again for all your help. I feel free of the fear now its all gone. What a genuine relief im free.
