Me and Murphy

There are so few pics of me that I have gone back to April 2018 for this shot. This is me and Murphy and it makes me laugh as this is the closest I have ever been to a horse as I am frightened of them. I had a days photography with my friend Simon who insisted we go down to the stable and get out his horse Murphy for a trot round the paddock. I did a series of shots of him galloping and I was thrilled with them. Simon then said I should record this very rare moment. I think I look the perfect horsey woman with the whip over my shoulder!! LOL!! I was amazed at how soft his face was and his nose was like velvet. A magical day. They say the camera never lies!!

So this is me - I probably look more haggard now after all the stress but there is no evidence to show you!!

Hi Pam! You look great with this beautiful horse. Before I read your comment I thought Wow! you ride horses and never told us! lol I have ridden a few times with my girlfriend but I am scared of them too because I didn't grow up around them.

Hi Pam, would never have guessed you were nervous...I’m not used to horses either, I hated donkey rides when I was a kid! You look lovely ....I’m sure you look equally good today!

Beautiful horse, I know the feeling about being frightened of horses, although I love them and I have always supported my daughter and now my grandkids with their love of horses I am still scared of them.

You looks like an old hand here -- (not old, as in age, but as in confidence). It's fun to 'see' you again!

Lovely shot of you two. I'm afraid of horses, too.

[Rob Crosby]

Great shot of you both!

I remember your times with Murphy. Could you add this photo to the Roll Call photos please.

[Jane Pittenger]

You look quite comfortable with him

[Marnie]

Ahhh, I remember that time well. Love the shot.

And I was just about to say how envious I am of your having Murphy - what a lovely looking chap, and it's so nice to see you!

Well, don't you look like quite the proficient equestrian! It's a terrific photo, Pam; I love it! Chuckling to myself, I'm thinking that if this were FB, I could post the picture of you with the Llama closing in behind you! Best you stick to your little while doggies!
