🐴✨ Snuggle Sitters has been out and about again, although this time my clients had four legs and were slightly bigger than usual! 😂
I’ve spent the weekend at Aston-le-Walls for the Regional Pony Club Championships with my best friends and their children, acting as the official driver, chauffeur, snack supplier and general support crew. 🚚🐴
And what a weekend it was for Etta! She rode like an absolute champ and we couldn’t be prouder of her results. 🌟 Gunner was also a superstar pony and definitely deserves a mention for being such a good boy. 🥰
The weather, however, had absolutely no idea what it was doing! Saturday brought biblical levels of rain ☔️🌧️ and at one point Rose and I decided the only sensible thing to do was hide in my horsebox… where we secretly ate sweets while everyone else was getting soaked to the skin. 😂🍬 Priorities!
By Sunday, we were back to sunshine and wandering around in just a T-shirt. Typical British weather! 🤦♀️
Somehow, in amongst all of that, I’ve also managed to put my shoulder out. 🙈 No idea how, but apparently even being the official driver comes with its risks!
It’s another quieter week for Snuggle Sitters as I was booked off last week and I’m out again towards the end of this week because… well… it’s the BEST WEEKEND OF THE YEAR! 🐎🍾
That’s right, it’s Burghley Horse Trials! 🎉
And I’ll be there with my best friends and, of course, a FOMO child who absolutely cannot possibly miss out on anything! 😂🎉
You’ll most likely find me there drinking Pimm’s, watching some incredible horses, wandering around the shopping stands and desperately trying not to buy things I absolutely do not need. 😂
Although… I might need a very waterproof coat for winter. Obviously. That’s completely essential. 😉☔️
Then it’s back to the pets, with a sit with the gorgeous Digby 🐶❤️ and a couple of weddings to look after before I actually leave the country and go on a proper holiday! ✈️☀️
And this one is going to involve absolutely no horseboxes, no driving, no weddings and hopefully very little rain. 😂
My plans are very simple: drink cocktails by the pool, read my book and do absolutely nothing productive for a whole 7 days. 🍹📖🏖️
All with my long-suffering husband, who puts up with me being gone for days on end while I’m off looking after everyone else’s animals! 😂❤️
I think we’ve both earned that holiday. 🥂
From cuddles to confetti, we’ve got it covered. 🐾💕
