Blog

Where has the month of October gone. It does not seem that long ago that I was posting Septembers blog and here we are at the end of October. What has happened, well quite a lot.

I arrived back into Sydney – Australia late last night, having had stop overs in Spain & Dubai. With a shortened overseas schedule it is the first time that I have been back in Australia at this time of the year for many years. The irony is that as I have escaped the rain falling in the U.K. it is much needed within rural areas of Australia.

After last years very wet U.K. summer, fitting summer, sun and the U.K. into the same sentence did not seem possible. This year it has happened, thankfully. My U.K. visit for this year is now drawing to a close and has seen successful horse intakes and courses.

Unbelievable, the sun has come out to play in England, what a difference to last years summer. I am now halfway through my U.K. time and now starting my second week of the second intake of young horses with all having had 6- 7 rides. Prior to this intake of horses I was travelling the country from Lancashire to Liverpool finishing in Shropshire with a 3 day horsemanship course at Chris & Trevor Kynaston facility in Whitchurch.

Hi to one and all as we have now officially begun winter here in Australia, it feels more like a U.K. summer. This is the first time that I have been in Australia in June for probably over 15 years.
