October - December UPDATE!

Sorry about the late blog post I've been a busy girl even though the eventing season is over for the year!!

The season ended for me in October and the livery horses went home for their rest and mine had a bit of time off so I could go off to Dubai to sun myself!! 

It was a last minute booking and just went for the 5 days which wasn't long enough!! It's my second time to Dubai and I love it, we are really lucky that my fiancé sister lives there, so we stay in her lovely apartment overlooking the Marina and the beach is only 10 minutes walk away ! It was nice to get away and relax and spend time with my fiancé (well some of the time)!!!

Dubai

Back from my holiday I've just had the 5 in work and a new livery horse coming for breaking,  Which is always exciting starting a young horse off.

I was asked again to do the dressage teams again this year for the RVRC with Clare Welton-Cole, Sarah Baldwin & Tanya Draude. Last time we did it you may remember we won the Championships this year at Hartpury. 

We had to go off to Ardingly to the South of England Showground for the Qualifier on the 2nd December this time Clare and I were doing the Prelim test & Sarah and Tanya the Novice. I took my trusty partner Corby aka Cullawn My Way (who is for sale!) . He did a super test with 71.88% and won his section Clare was 4th so we were laying 2nd after our test so no pressure on the two girls!! But they did great and as a team we came 2nd so qualified for the Championships again in March 2013.   Fingers crossed!

BRC Dressage Champions - Summer 2012 (hopefully Spring 2013 too!)

Also have some good news to share there will be a little person with me next year, so you'll be seeing my mum pushing a little person around the events!! It means I won't be starting eventing until July only half a season for me next year :-(  Planning on doing lots of dressage with the ponies until then.I took Corby and Ollie to Golden Cross last Saturday for dressage and they came 1st & 2nd and 2nd & 3rd in their tests.

Baby Pilbeam-Mulvey!

Nearly forgot I did a very exciting photo shoot for a calendar called Fifty Shades of Dapple Grey lots of eventers took part it was a bit of a rush to get it ready for the South East Eventers League (SEEL) Ball but we did it thanks to Sam Penn and Sarah Hayter.  My month is June and the calendar page is kindly sponsored by my wonderful supportive and generous sponsors Dragonfly Saddlery & Pets. If you would like a copy contact me they are £15 including P&P money goes to South East Eventers League. The ball went well with 350 people turning up always love the end of year ball any excuse to dress up!!

Promise I won't leave my blog to long next time. Hope you all have a lovely Christmas.
