WEEKEND WISHES: the pony club edition

Welcome to a rather special pony edition of weekend wishes…
Here is a brand new illustration from Jen’s sketchbook, inspired by ponies of course!

This weekend should have been Badminton Horse Trials.
This is a traditional celebration of Horses, athletes, and country living.
Every year we visit, unfortunately this is the first time (that I can remember)
it has been cancelled due to our weather, with the Olympics,
there were chances that could not be taken.
The Trials are in 3 parts…
