Hello peeps,
I'm having a really lazy day today, I don't know who's pinched my energy but I'd like it back lol. The sun is starting to come out after being awol for a few days so that should perk me up a bit, but for now I am lounging on the sofa, eyes flicking from laptop to the Olympics on TV. I didn't think I would enjoy the Olympics as much as I am but I confess, I'm hooked, especially watching the equestrian events. As a kiddie I used to love watching the showjumping & I remember watching Nick Skelton on World Of Sport or Grandstand, now I'm showing my age lol. I used to ride virtually every weekend and would sometimes be on a horse for pretty much the whole day when at events. It's such a shame I can't ride anymore due to my shoulder dislocations as I loved it so much, but I can make cards instead and there's a big bonus of not getting saddle sore lol.
