My Special Memories

Cocoa, my first pony was not a very reliable jumper and we often went to shows only 

to be eliminated at the first jump. This is the first rosette we were given - not 

for winning anything - I think it was probably for trying so hard!

I was given this book by a friend of my mum's just after I started riding.  

It has remained my favourite ever since and I have re-read it so many times. 

It is a really heartfelt and inspiring story.

This horse was given to me for a 21st birthday present and I had always 

wanted one.  I love it and it reminds me of my first pony, Cocoa.

Last year I went on the holiday of a lifetime, a riding safari in 

Botswana.  I bought this cap as a reminder.  It was the most 

amazing experience, one which I will never forget. 

My mum made me this when I went to university.  It meant a lot to 

me that she had spent time making it and it reminded me of home and 

my pony (although we never won any gold cups!).

My grandpa gave me this old wooden tool box to keep my horse things in 

when I got my first pony.  It is very special to me as he has since passed 

away.  Although I keep it at home now it holds all my horsey memories.
