40 Euro Flagellation

After having played football for so many years things are rather simplistic – you either win, lose or draw. It seems I have taken this uncomplicated view of the world into show jumping – you’re either clear (no bars down) or you’re not; as soon as one bar is down then I sort of don’t really care about the result because it’s almost guaranteed that you can’t win. As such maybe I was a bit hard on myself after Blaye – I just found out today that I had done better than I thought on the last day and I even won 40 euros. Admittedly that probably only covers about 3 horse shoes or 4 days of food for Pich, but it was a nice reminder that not everything on the equine front is bleak!
