New boots
A Dressage husband thought that the relationship between his DD and himself needed some cementing , if he to get into where very few Dressage Husbands ever get into, some concrete steps must be taken to smooth the pass to the goal.
So far his intentions were miss understood and totally rejected, the only respond he got from DD was “You don’t UNDERSTANND how stressed I am, now that British Dressage changed the competition structure even Carl and Charlotte WILL ride in the HALT ONLY championship.
Dressage husband was not a Dressage husband for nothing , he was fully qualified and experienced in this roll, years of experience taught him that the only way to calm a Dressage Diva’s nerves prior to a major championship is something new, sparkly and very expensive.
After days of searching the internet he found the most suitable item , It was the most lovely Dressage boots, made of the finest Italian leather , blingly edged and sparkly heeled with gold plated spurs to match.
As DD was about to leave the house for her weekly training session with Marco de Graber (the well-known German dressage trainer ) Dressage Husband gently said “Daaarrrlinnng when you return I have a surprise for you , it will make you the happiest woman in the world.
There was a moment of silence and she said
“ THANKS I will MISS you!!”
