Between a break in the weather, we were able to have our annual Christmas ride just before the New Year.

It is always a compulsory requirement that riders and or horses are dressed up in festive gear.... anything shiney, fluffy or brightly coloured etc.

We had a festive christmas tree riding one horse and a pink fairy on another. Of course we had a Santa. I'm not sure what the horses thought, but everyone had lots of fun and some even returned to do some festive show jumping in the school.

The day was finished off with a spread of well-earned hot sausage rolls, some pizza and other snacks. A glass or two of lambrini was also welcomed by some.

Here are a few photo's.

There's that Christmas Tree

Shocking pink fairy along with tutu!

Is there an elf in our midst?

Shiney!

Our own young Santa.

Take it you want to be seen Jean!!!

Wow - now that's Christmassy!

And again.

I think the trees have been stripped of their tinsel.

Lily likes to be a minimalist!

Are we ready for the off????
