This is Georgie's tack room pre-clean and organisation, it was inbetween us in Manda's car on the way there and I found it quite entertaining to see what interesting things we could see in the pile
You can't see them in this photo, but at one point with all the hands poking out from underneath saddles and things, I counted six people! George was also very pleased with the new authentic spiderwebs in the corner
Once we were at the show, the first classes were the scenes. If I know who owns what I'll write it underneath

Other performance
I loved this arab!
Stacey's amazing four horse driving team
My pairs XC. I got very annoyed before this class as both my rider in red, and one I'd done in Yellow and pink's leg wires decided to snap! We drafted in a plan B rider for Shantih, but Loki's rider did the course with two very broken wibbly wobbly legs. I tried to fix them but it was gruesome and didn't work

Elli's new one

Georgie and Starri celebrating, Manda doing a dance in the background
*Kits gestures at me to turn around, where I see my un-named special order has one his class*
Me: Ooh well done!
Kits:
Me: What?
Kits: I thought you were making a joke about him being dun...
Which is how he got the show name Well Dun
Georgie's Surprise again, she did well!

There were some spare rosettes left over after the last class, so there was an impromptu Handsomest stallion/gelding and Prettiest mare. WD won it, went Fun Champion and then Reserve Supreme overall!
Me (Reserve Supreme), Jan (Supreme) and Stacey (Reserve reserve Supreme) looking pleased! Laura was very generous with the prizes, giving out medals as well as the huge beautiful rosettes!
Well Dun with his haul when we got home! He has a very big head after all the compliments he got on the day. Laura did such a beautiful job on him
Prize cards
I'm going to say
again what a fantastic day it was, I wish it was happening again this weekend! I'll go and formally introduce my spares newbies on another thread
