I came a cropper at Christmas Triptych, ended up in A&E and have had problems with a shoulder injury ever since.  Having seen how brave the contestants are and the height of some of their fences, I thought I might as well give it another go.

I tried my hand at polo a couple of weeks ago and absolutely loved it as one of my customers has just started lessons and suggested I came along.  It is a completely different way of riding and the ponies are so highly schooled I was totally gobsmacked by the whole thing.   I have since been to watch two more polo matches (including the Queen's Cup) as Guards is only a few miles away from me.  Jack Kidd has fairly recently opened a polo school nearby, so if I can pluck up enough courage I may sign up for a few lessons here too.
