We had a really good day:

Elliot:
Although not competing he still made me proud - the exercise area was next to the carpark and although cars weren't really moving around we managed to three times go there and play ball off lead and not with his harness on and he didn't run off at all - he is getting to be a clever boy bless him :D

Jemma:
Helter Skelter: 20th
We were clear and as she was going over the final jump (a spread) and I went "yay" so she dropped her legs and knocked down the poles - doh!! At least I have now learnt not to get excited until her feet touch the ground after the finish line!! After having now shown my trainer the video she reckons Jem would have dropped her feet anyway but at least it is still a lesson I have learnt!!:)

Agility: E
The third obstacle was the weaves - after talking to my trainer I decided that as in training we are still doing weaves on their own that I would collect jem and make her sit before the weaves, sadly this still didn't work and even after 2 attempts she didn't mange the weaves. However we carried on and she did teh rest of the course really well :D

Snooker: 20th
We managed the first part really well although was slowing down quite a lot on the way down the a-frame. Sadly she then dropped a pole 3 obstacles before the weaves which were 2nd from the end, but she dropped the pole because I turned too early so it wasn't her fault :)

Jumping: 21st
She knocked the long jump because I drove her forward at the wrong time. She also got another 5 faults because she knocked the second to last pole because I had decided to front cross her but I didn't have time - oopsies - I need to work on sending her away from me on two right angled jumps

She is now 21st in the league despite having missed one of the competitions-this seems to be around her favourite position bless her!! :)

I will post the videos once I have got two of them off nat and movie makered them :) Sadly they are quite distant as we had to use our phones as the batteries we had for the camera were dead!!

Videos as promised:
