How did you get on at TTT Charlie?

[charlie]

Hi jenny- well going back again on 15th- looks like have got the place- all very positive, had a lesson and apart from the joke- that is my sitting trot- I was told I had good feel and a sympathy for the horse- which is the best compliment ever- she basically said I needed training. Going back for another lesson and finalisation fo situation. Cxx

Addington EC is nr Buckingham and Milton Keynes, so North Bucks.

[jennyb]

That's a bit far from Lincs.

Great news Charlie, well done! You'll have to keep me posted on how you get on, and of course, any riding tips welcome, lol! Let me know if you ever venture into Lincs, you can pass on some of your hard-earned knowledge. Bet that placement will get you your PTT hours in no time!

[annahindley]

Is anyone going? I have booked and can't wait!

[Louise C]

Anna - have you met Stuart Hastie before - he's a really interesting guy, in his ninety's, but you wouldn't know it and as sharp as a pin?

Have fun, are you going both days?

[annahindley]

No, never met him and yes, I'm doing both days. Sounds like it is going to be interesting.....

[Louise C]

Where are you staying? Perhaps we could get together?

[annahindley]

I'm stayinng at a B & B in Maids Moreton. Would be great to get together on Wednesday evening if you're about.

[Louise C]

Should be OK, there is a pub called the Wheatsheaf in MM - that would probably be easier for you - I know where it is as have done more than a few vet visits to the place! why don't you pm me your email address?
