July 2013

Well here we are in July 2013 and Midgate East Stables is finally under construction. We have been planning this since 2009 so we are both very excited. It has been a long road securing planning permission and finance but now it feels like the end is in sight and we hope to open in the Autumn. The lovely weather means that Gareth has managed to get all the hay making done this month it's all stacked in the barn and smelling lovely. Thank goodness it has been a much less stressful process than last year! The hardcore building began last week with the arrival of 600 tonnes of limestone for the base of the stables and arena- thats a pretty enormous pile of stone! Gareth has begun digging out the foundations and hopes to have that finished by the end of the week. The stable drains have been completed and it's fantastic to see progress being made.
In other news Millie and I have been out eventing for the first time in a couple of months we went to the Burghley Pony Club ODE. Burghley park really is a fantastic setting and given the weather the ground conditions were actually really good. Two poles down Show Jumping (always our nemesis) put us out of the placings but I was thrilled with a lovely clear around a really tough cross country. Probably won't get out again now until it rains as the ground is so hard, Gareth's potatoes could do with a drink too. I will update with our progress next month its exciting times at the moment.
