A very wet July!


Unfortunately, Cumberland County Show on 18th July was cancelled due to the overnight rain (plus the rest from the previous day!) causing the high risk of flooding on the showfield. We did however go eventing on the Sunday with Sonny at Cumwhinton. This was his first attempt at a slightly higher level, cross country fences at 1metre high, so I was a bit (understatement) nervous. He was super though and had a double clear which put him in 11th place.
Back to Cumwhinton the following Sunday, Rachel aboard him this time for Pony Club area, he again went really well with a great cross country clear. Fizz is back in work after his back injury but was not quite up to a cross country run at this stage.
Last weekend it was Cockermouth Show on Saturday, a lovely day out, some red rosettes among our little gang (Fizz, Jethro and Billy pictured above) and a couple of trophies too.
