We went for the fourth year running ... I would echo a few of the moans (and I'm not being bitter six wins, second and third out of eight classes, supreme ridden Friday night, res. champ., & first res. - so a good weekend). Enjoyed ourselves as ever. yes, names not numbers would be great, people do struggle to tell what Peter is saying ... but he makes RL unique. Which is why we come back. The exit from the indoor does need sorting (more rubber mats?). Our pony was one not for stopping as he came out. Medic - I think you judged us on Friday - thank you - not very often can we compete in SHP as he is entire - and your comments delighted our jockey (& pony). All panel judges, pre-advised would be great, as the tbc judges might mean we can't enter but we don't know till the day, if we had known before we might have brought other eligible ponies.

. Medic - I think you judged us on Friday - thank you - not very often can we compete in SHP as he is entire - and your comments delighted our jockey (& pony). Yes it was me! He is stunning and has manners to burn. I did tell your jockey where my lorry was, so I could bring him home! If I had a brood mare i would definately send it to him. He is everything a true shp should be.

Ok first things first. I would like to congratulate the RL team for putting on a wonderful show we had a great few days, I would also like to say a big thank you to Betsy and her team who were always cheerful and so helpful. A big thank you to the two laddies that were at the secretary's table sorting the entries, despite having some trying times they were only to happy to put you right when things were a little fraught. A huge well done to denzile2008 and team your horse is magnificent a well deserved winner. " Another huge well done to gypsy1 for your supreme in-hand, your mare remained a lady even when my boy was thinking naughty thoughts toward her (he has a thing about big women)." Finally can I say a very big thank you to the audience for all the cheering every time my boy came into the ring you made a very memorable evening even more special and I cant begin to put into words how much my family appreciated all your support. As for the people moaning, I'm not even going to bother to make any replies it would just not be worth the effort, and why spoil some very happy memories for a mindless few. "r u talking about the leaders here? the mind boggles!!! haha" Oooo misses you have just made me blush.

Medic, im a friend of Olivia and her mum, who rang me today to say how much they had enjoyed RL.and how nice one particular judge had been with her little one, when the nerves overcame her. so it was so nice to see you mention it. shw has now decided that she dosent want to ride anymore as the stress is to much for her, so if you know anyone for her pony, he will be going onto the market and they will be looking for a small to do some inhand classes. Once again thanyou for being so nice to the little ones.

Perfect thank you for you kind words. It is such a shame Olivia is going to give up. As a mum, I really felt for her. It is such a big thing, for these 'little people', going on their own for the first time. As judges we should do everything, we can, to make sure they leave the ring with a smile on their faces. Its fun after all!

Mayhem may i just add, if you are the same mayhem as the user mayhem, so why your not logged in i will never know, but your posts make interesting reading with alot of moaning about various shows/ judges etc, i got back to my previous statement, in this thread or the other one, you dont please everyone all of the time, seems that you have a regular whine about things.

Firstly i have a big thankyou to say to Medic, i have never in all my showing days met such a lovely judge, who took the time to coax my nervous little girl into the ring and made the class a pleasure for her. Olivia has arthritus, she was born with it and it just zaps all of her confidence, she loves her ponies and the idea of showing but simply falls apart under pressure, so we have decided to let her have a season in hand next year as she did the 4+ showpony class at the RL and won which gave her an amazing boost. Sorry to rabble on when what i really wanted to say was thanks Medic you are in the minority and so very much needed. Lots of love from Olivia and a very proud mummy.
Secondly thankyou to all the organisers we have allways done the bsps champs until now. If people want exactly the same as bpsp/puk well maybe they should stick with paying £30 per class to be put below producers regardless of performance and be dealt with by rude organisers who look at you like a piece of muck because your joe bloggs!!
We enjoyed the show 200% the organisers were amazing, helpful and guenuine. Ok there is alwaays going to be little issues that could be improved upon but it certainly didnt spoil are show. We will be going back next year, it was great fun. (isnt that how it should be!!!!!) WELL DONE THE TEAM.

Just got back and read this thread,
A huge well done to Pat Peter and the team we had a brilliant time
First big well done to the fab hunter that won he was stunning did I read you only had him a week fantastic. I also want to say huge congrats to that amazing little girl on the grey shettie and grey section A she is definatly a future star so nice to see a kid hugging her pony. I loved the hack and thought his show was amazing and spoke to Jordan whilst he was leading him around during the day what a nice man he was so friendly and very modest Half Pass did I speak to you when you came out of the ring on Sat with your boy I had the black shettie, OMG what a stunning pony I also spoke to you when you came out of the ring in the evening performancebut you where a bit out of breath LOL. I would also like to say thankyou for being allowed into the ring on Sat to present a special rosette int the veteran class, I made a bit of a fool of myself as I was so upset but I dont regret it one bit Now to all the moaners stop moaning it was a great show not all of us can afford to go to the big champ shows and not all of us have top class ponies and horses, If you dont like it dont go Last and by no means least the Andrea that takes entries you are amazing well done
