Hello all :) Well I am just about recovering from all that driving on Saturday and am ready to share with you some pictures of Saturday's live show.
Springtime Showtime is held in north wales and is a bit of a drive! But totally worth it, yes the hall was cold, but I can put up with a lot of cold for a good show :D
I had a great day, lots of fun with friends (including the brutal murder of a unicorn) and soooo much food! I swear I gain like 2 stone just from attending this show each year!
There were also some amazing prizes on offer and some beautiful horses and set ups on show. The performance section was absolutely jam packed with loads of creative ideas and inspiration.
You can find full photos here:

But as ever here are my selected highlights:
One of the Easter scene entries
Another Easter scene
My own Agamenmon, a RubberNedz Striking Arab in bay
Beautiful Suscesion
A couple of English ridden entries
A really creative show jump made out of a 3D puzzle!
Spot the grey Thoroughbred!
Nope that one isn't grey (this is the Breyer Frankel btw)
One of the most popular entries of the day 'Haulin Ass'
A gorgeous chestnut ISH
Chestnut CTF (the name of this has completely escaped me, they were available from MPV)
Western pleasure entry (who says you need expensive tack?)
Really gorgeous Breyer TWH
An Equorum PBA
I'm not sure this pony has enough hair...
I love this doll's outfit
Another general room shot, you can see Western Other and OF Iberian
I took a couple of pictures of this because it made me so happy! This is the Breyer Traditional Barrel racing tack set combined with the Kaitlyn Cowgirl who is technically Classic scale. As you can see it works perfectly well and they go so well together!
I loved this little Equorum pony
CTF Fantasy (featuring everything from RubberNedz to Build a Bear)
And even small blue ponies!
