I gave my horse a rest yesterday, poor thing can't be expected to work 7 days a week can he!
Instead I did a bit of modelling. I have been approached by a British lady in France who wants to market our side saddle riding habits. Apparently the revival of ladies riding side saddle has only just started to happen in France, and has not yet literally exploded like it has here in England. So someone saw an opportunity and got in touch with me. She seems a nice lady who is a journalist and sometimes writes for the Sunday Times and the Telegraph. She lives in France with her French husband and 5 children in the centre of Paris. She has ridden side saddle as a child and now wants her 12 year old daughter to take up the sport.
She is the editor of a French website portal called DIVENTO http://www.divento.com
so she will be featuring our habits there.
I am starting to get quite excited about it. I have been modelling the habits yesterday and having photos taken of them. I might need to go to France for a photo shoot.
If any of you would like to see some of the habits take a look here :-

Take care all. And hope you get a chance to see my side saddle riding habits.
