A self-confessed country bumpkin and lover of all things equine, I have suddenly found myself doing what I swore I never would: attempting to navigate living in the smoke.
Before I met Rhys, my annual journeys to London were made under duress and exclusively to compete at Olympia horse show. So as I try to juggle life with my very country hobbies, I fear this sheep could become very lost indeed!

I need to talk about turning into my mother. It’s frightening.

I made it into the ring. It was as nervewracking as ever.

7 months to the day, @rhysmaelgwyn and I will be saying “I do”. Meanwhile, Prince’s field will have been transformed, green again, and hopefully will have the sun shining on it for the most perfect of parties... With Goldenballs Prince on the top table, naturally! #weddingcountdown #engaged💍 #weddingplanning
@maggie_simons and I got into the spirit of the season and dressed up as baubles for a lovely evening at the Dyfed Welsh Pony and Cob Association Points Awards and Christmas supper. It turned out to be the easiest rosette grab we have done all year: no mud, no sweat and not even a pair of breeches, but we still came home with a stash of prizes and a championship for Goldenballs Prince. Happy days! #christmasiscoming #gannigirls #neverfullydressed #welshponyandcobsociety #horseygirls #winnerwinnerchickendinner
So the dodgy spine may insist I take a few weeks out of riding horses, mucking out horses or even writing features about horses, but it can’t stop me talking about them! Had a great two days at the @royal_welsh_show ‘s #winterfair Was as glad to be back in my comfort zone today on voice-over rather than on screen. Those black bags are definitely the making of a face for radio! Good job the lovely girls at @bluetitlondon could fit me in last minute as safe to say I had definitely let standards slip in favour of a pain-free existence on the sofa! Well done to everyone who bagged a win, and thanks to @maggie_simons being a top little sister and chauffeur! #royalwelshwinterfair #royalwelsh #winterfair2019 #s4c #ysioe #bluetitlondon #lastminutehair
Coming home to this little parcel from @farmcottagebakery was such a treat! Thankyou very much, Alice, for dropping them off. I so love donuts! #donuts #delicious #homemade #yummyinmytummy
After almost a month at home nursing my mystery injury and the news that I will now be referred to a spinal surgeon, I wasn’t particularly looking forward to my return to go #weddingdressshopping . But, the day’s kicked off remarkably well spotting @morganmotors ‘ one and only #londonmorgan at @annabelsmayfair . I won’t lie, I have a lot of car envy at the moment! On the downside, bridesmaid @gemmagemma_123 is never going to concentrate on dresses now that excitement for her upcoming #morgantour had gone to a new level...! #annabelsmayfair #carenvy #morganmotors #beauty #cheeredmerightup
Even in the rain, even when the stallholders wake me RIDICULOUSLY early in the mornings setting up below the bedroom window, I love this road and all its quirks and all its treasures. It’s a daily treat walking Betty down it when I am in London, market open or not. #nottinghill #portobellomarket #london
