Its LF's Birthday today. So happy 20th to him.
We were robbed yesterday in the end of the Eventing. Basically the German Rider Bettina Hoy on a very gorgeous Grey - Ringwood Cockatoo entered the start gate while doing a warm up circle.
So obviously the time was running and as she went round the 1st fence it counted as a refusual.
We appealed and got promoted to Silvel medal position.
Then while individual Show jumping was going on a counter appeal happened as Bettina would now go down in the rankings, meaning that Leslie Law (us) would win Gold for a perfect clear round...
But the counter appeal went for Germany again, so the German team were given the Silver we were relegated back to Bronze and in the indivudual we were given Silver when we should have bronze.
So we're now thinking about appealing the appeal for the first appeal....
I'll keep you posted....
Meanwhile I *May* possibly have my hands on a lickle blue 4 door metro, thats either a F-reg or a B-reg.
I'm not too sure, but again I'll keep you posted.
Me and the Mothership and E are going riding. Me on my bestest 4-hooved buddy Molly and Mum on a Piebald (Magpie - coloured for the none horsey) Cob (Read: short and stocky) Called Tilt and E will be riding a taller Cob that could quite easily pass for a short Shire. (Read: black, white hairy legs)
