A WEEK IN THE LIFE OF ME | Summer 2018 

You do absolutely brilliantly and this blog has been honest to a week in the life of you ... in a week that’s been testing to say the least. As an older person who has never achieved with horses - or in life really - it’s lovely to re- live it through youngsters like you. Enjoy all you do and your friends both human and furry 🥰🦄💗🐶💗🌞😎

Lovely to see Cornwall in all its glory! I miss it ☀️

this is a genuine week in your life, stuff happens, this is the reality. people I feel, are more interested in what's really going on rather than just the highlights xx keep up the good work -ignore the energy vampires and shine on x

Tina, can I just say, there is a reason I am watching all yours and Ems vlogs. You both make me laugh, give me a good break from study and get me so motivated to ride and train. I don't know why someone would need to be a keyboard warrior and say nasty things to two such amazing, bubbly and inspirational girls. I only found your vlogs a few months ago, but I started from the beginning and i'm still here, watching this one to the very end. Keep it up please, you girls are amazing

What a beautiful person you are inside and out, you're right about the haters they are jealous and put other people down to make them feel better about themselves. There are so many people that love you and love what you do. I for one enjoy any vlog you do about anything! Bring on Launceston 🐴🙂💞

The reason I love your vlogs is because you and Emily are so down to earth, humble and don’t portray a false picture perfect lifestyle that you so often see online! I tune in every week and enjoy everything you upload! F the haters you’re both amazing ❤️

I know this was 11 months ago. You are amazing, you are doing the right thing and dont stop doing what you love because we certainly love watching what you all get up to with or without the ponies. and if venting emotions is what you need then do it. Sharing can help lift the weight off your shoulders x Keep going you've got this. Progress not perfection. One foot or hoof in front of the other. Xx love watching your vlogs

Oh Tina I wanted to reach in and give you a hug when you were talking about the haters 😢 I can’t bear people being mean it’s just such a waste of life ... I LOVE your vlogs they are carrying me through grief and honestly bring a smile to my face when everything else is sad and heart breaking - your are an inspiration, a virtual friend, an encourager ... I LOVE your videos - think your a fab rider and keep me motivated to ride my horse despite having quite bad nerves - we are show jumping this weekend and stepping up from 60/70 to 80 for the first time so THANKYOU for sharing 💖💖💖

Real life is often not exciting. So don't stress about it. Have no idea what on earth they could possibly criticize you for. Don't let them get to you. They are just making themselves look bad.

I for one loved the realness of this vlog, and would be devastated if some nasty cheap seat commentators put you off uploading your amazing weekly vlogs. You and Emily are a huge inspiration to me, and are both such genuinely lovely people! Thanks so much for sharing your challenging week xo

It's nice to have a vlog like this once in a while, Tina. As much as you may think it is not good, or inspiring, it is! I, for one, really enjoy what you and Em post. Sorry to know you have been experiencing negativity from some people. But it is quite common and so unavoidable when one does vlogging apparently. I do not know of any vlogger that I watch that has not mentioned going through it. The people that choose to run you down do it from jealously. Jealous that they do not have the life you do. Or cannot ride as well as you. Or are not as attractive as you. They choose to come on to your channel and snipe because they are too lazy to make themselves or their lives better. Much easier to sit in a chair and criticize, than to put in the work and bring a dream to fruition. I think all vloggers are courageous. It takes guts to put yourself out there in the public. You and Em serve a real purpose to those of us that do ride or are aspiring to it. Both of you sit a horse properly and have great position in action. It is a pleasure to watch you or Em ride a course. Deep breath, woman, go forth, and thank you for letting us watch your journey in eventing.

EM I am so sorry for your loss, I can't imagine how you must be feeling.

You are a lovely wonderfull person, live your life how you want it and let the negative people behind you. You are a big inspiration to me, and I'm sure to a lot of other people to. Keep doing what your doing! And I loved this vlog!! 😘😘

Don't let the haters get to you hun, there's always someone that will always want to make you feel crap and unfortunately that's life, so I'm sending you a very big virtual hug and hope it puts a small smile on your beautiful face, and I did enjoy this vlog by the way 💖

Real life is simply REAL! If somebody doesn’t want to watch your journey they can just simply not watch!! Why are people so horrid, so often it is just simply jealousy. You & em inspire so many 😘😘 xxx

Real life isn't always fab. Sometimes it's just complete shit. I for one know that. I love that you share your highs and lows. Don't let the muggles get you down. I love your cat btw. Keep it up. I really enjoy your vlogs and instastories and so on. Sending some love from 🇸🇪

Love this vlog! I think it really reflects everyday life for most people trying to balance horses, work and general life. Pay no attention to the negative comments, they achieve nothing but you bring loads of happiness and inspiration to many people!

Well, I loved your vlog darling. I absolutely adore both you and Emily. There are some idiots out there...god knows why people are so negative! You certainly don’t deserve anything other than praise, happy thoughts, sparkles and sunshine! Much love and thanks for taking the time to share a little piece of your life with us xxxxx

These vlogs and actually all of your Vlogs genuinely make my day. They’re so real and are always positive. Thank you for them x

🌟WARNING LONG COMMENT 🌟I have to say that you have been an inspiration to me from the first time i seen you and banks on blue chip 🌟🌟🌟🌟 you have pulled me out of panic attacks ,anxiety and depression on many occasions just by speaking on insta stories threw banksys ears ... theres special thing to be said when a person can inspire and motivate so many people everyday just by being themselves. . Dont bat an eyelid at haters girl because 1 horrid person isnt worth the thousands that look forward everyday to seeing your posts stories and when you upload to youtube every week .. and looove the vlog as always 🌟🌟

Well done for persevering and sharing the reality of it. Sorry you're getting hassle from haters, you and Em are fab and so inspiring, I love watching your vlog it always brings a smile to my face. Try not to let the haters throw you off balance, they're just not your people. Xx

Hi Tina - Dont be put off by haters. They have that name for a reason, their aim is to bring you down, to bring everyone down, if it didnt happen for you, it would of happened for someone else. Im having some problems with friends and bullies and seeing your bubbly face gets me through it. So never stop what youre doing, I understand this was from a while ago, but all of us here, are here to support you through the good and the bad. :)

I know how it feels to be sensitive I was bullied all through school and college because I spent more time with animals than them and that made me feel like I was worthless (sometimes I still do) but I'm always told by family and friends that the way that I am with my animals and friends horses is amazing and it's something I love and I shouldn't let anybody get in the way. I was also brought up with the sayings 'if you have nothing nice to say don't say it' and 'Treat people the way you want to be treated' and I live by both of them. I think I can say this for all your true followers that : WE ARE ALL HERE TO SUPPORT YOU AND SHOW YOU THE LOVE AND RESPECT YOU BOTH DESERVE!!! You're both an inspiration (I just need to learn to drive and then my channel might get some uploads!!!)

Tina we love these vlogs! Its real life- not always as planned but its part of your authenticity which makes you so lovely and somebody to look up to, don't let the negativity drag you down. xxx

Real life isn’t always all sunshine and rainbows. The main thing is you’ve still got a smile on your face and you will get through it. People are so cruel especially if the equestrian industry. Your an amazing person and the fact you share the highs and lows is a good thing! Stay strong and everything will get better ❤️

I cant imagine anyone wanting to be nasty,you are so lovely and genuine! Kick um to the side cus youre right,youve been brought up proper to respect others. Youre mum did a fab job. Are you a cancerian? My son was born 4th july,hes nearly 30 and is sensitive,kind and caring. Im a scorpio,3rd November and have definately got a sting in my tail! Anyway, keep on doing what youre doing. Love you and Em,youre fab,xx

After being away, without internet, for 7 weeks I've been catching up on your (wonderful) vlogs! Just gotten to this one and just wanted to say that you (and Emily) do an amazing job of showing the good and the bad and everything in between that we can all relate to. I hope you can look back on this week Tina and feel good about yourself for continuing, and surviving, as you always do!!

Lovely real vlog. Made me miss England for the beautiful hacking, empty beaches, professional back people for your horses, polos, Sainsburys and cool days. I'm currently lying in a dark room with a fan on, avoiding 35C heat at 6pm summoning the energy to go to the horses, which have such a different lifestyle to yours. Thank you for sharing xx

I hate seeing you doubt yourself Tina! You and Em together or separate are both amazing! I know how hard it is to not listen or take in the haters, but as you said in this vlog it is all jealousy! Tina we love your horsey vlogs, but we also love your day to day life! We love you and Em for you! Not for your "perfect content" Keep smiling as it takes way to much effort to frown and be sad!

Thank you Tina for showing the reality so many people do not , you just give a real breath of fresh air back into this society, keep your chin up ❤️

I love the fact that this is an honest and an actual genuine reflection of a real in the life of you. By all means do another if you feel like you need to but take pride in you did a vlog that is actually so inspiring. Life is not perfect and its nice to see for once. Xxx

Aw Tina, I hope you are all ok! Well done for persevering with the vlog, personally I loved it☺️Honestly don’t let the negativity get to you, just know that more people love you than dislike you and those that want to get to you are just jealous. I hope everything is all ok in your personal life. Xxxxx

It proves that you are human and you feel things more than others. I'm the same. Your vlogs are great Tina, try not to worry about those who are trying to bring you down... You have plenty of followers/subsribers to outway the negatives... 😊

HI Tina, I really enjoyed this. You have such a positive energy that even when you were feeling a bit sad you carried yourself with class and dignity and still seemed to shine. I loved the vlog, and love that Puss Puss so much, well done xx

100% rise about it. Nasty comments have no substance unless the person has the guts to say it to your face. I personally love how real your vlogs are. You 2 represent 99% of the horsey community. Yes Charlotte is inspiring but you 2 are closer to reality for most of us. Stay true to yourself lovely 😍😍😍😍😍from an Aussie.

Oh my Dear Sweet Tina, I am more sorry than you can possibly believe. You have had the most ghastly week. I am so sorry about Robs Dad, my Mum had gout and in no way was it pleasant for her. There is a lot of pain and discomfort and medication is definitely needed, in all respects. I hope that your father-in law recovers quickly and that the swelling goes down fast. You are a very sweet and kind daughter-in-law. There are not a lot of girls like you around. Take good care of your lovely family. Jane👍😎🧑🏻‍🦰

That Dinks in his tiny fly mask is so stinking cute! And thank you for pressing on and uploading your week, I enjoyed watching it 😊 to Hades with the nay sayers and criticizers! 🤐. Does it make them feel good to make others feel bad? I will never understand. We need to build each other up, not the other way around. Please give my sympathy to Em and I hope your Mom is ok and Robs Dad’s arm! ✌🏻❤️🤘🏻

Hi Tina I enjoy watching you and Emilia on you tube you both are nice keep up the good work your horse is lovely from Kim Wilson Northern Ireland

I did love this vlog, very realistic! I can't believe people would be so negative that it would make you think twice about uploading - - actually saying that, I CAN believe it, I just wish it wasn't so...

Great video :) have been at home, sick so appreciate all the content! Inspired to get out eventing when I'm better :D thanks for showing the highs and lows!

That was a lovely vlog Tina real life isn't always the best but you did fab if I did a week in the life of me vlog it would be 10000000x worst yours was amazing. so lovely to see what you get up to in-between competitions!! xx

Life can sometimes be nahhhrr so well done for sharing hun! Love your vlogs, they drive & motivate me to push through many a horsey challenge! 🐴Ignore the hater low life, they only win if you let them affect you!

Well done Tina, I am proud of you, you have completed a beautiful weekly Vlog. I know that it has been very stressful for you with all the things that have happened to you during this past week. Keep on vlogging. Like I said before do not let anyone get you down or give you dispiriting feelings. You are a lovely kind girl, even though I am super new to your Vlog, I support you completely in your effort to show us your horse life and what you are doing with it. Take good care of yourself and I really look forward to the next Vlog. Jane👍😎🧑🏻‍🦰

Well done for all your sharing and honesty, please keep going, and my kids were having the giggles with Dinks having his fly mask put on, and love seeing Cornwall ♥, big hug to Em, and one for you 🤗 🤗 x

You posted this so long ago but I'm new to your vlog. Keep doing what you're doing Tina. People will always be jealous but you work hard for your life so enjoy. Your vlogs are always honest and encouraging so well done you. Much love from a little lady who has just returned to the saddle after 34 years! X.

my fav UK beach!!!

Love getting to know my fellow equestrian youtubers better! I live at home with my ponies as well, and while I do lesson with some fab ladies, it’s sometimes hard to not have a close barn family. I feel like this community gives something toward that, which unfortunately brings the barn family drama along with it. It might not have been the week you wanted to film, but it was real and very nice to know more of the real you. Loved it!

Tina my Dear, Oh my goodness this must be at least my third or fourth comment. Please I beg you sweet girl do not listen to the negative people , they truly add nothing to anyones life, all they do is bring people down and disrupt their lives. There is nothing good that can come of it. All that happens is, those people state nasty comments of absolutely no value to anybody. Then you are left with a very bad feeling In you tummy, like you did or said something bad and that is certainly not true. You are right you unfortunately did have a horrible week to put out your long Vlog. Next week I’m sure will be a lot better. I absolutely think that it has actually already gone by. All of us that completely support you will always be there for you. Listen to us and our comments, they are real and from the heart. Take care and keep doing your lovely Vlog. Jane from America👍😎🧑🏻‍🦰

I swear my friend hate me on Wednesdays because I always sing your intro song at the start like 24/7😂 loved this vlog and love seeing your adventures every week 💜💜🐴

Dont feel bad about what other people think, at the end of the day you are living your best life that you can do. You are achieving your goals and chasing your dreams, which is probably a lot more than what they are doing. Usually people dont have that exciting anyway, so dont stress about it. Just keep the hard work, you are doing amazing!! ♥️♥️

PS I always get FROZEN in Sainsbury’s! 🤣

loved it!

PS Can you pleeeaaaasssse pass on to Emily my absolute condolences and big hugs on her sad loss of her Gran ❤️❤️❤️ Thanks 😘

Saw this pop up in my notifications last week but feel like I've been too busy to 'fully commit' to the level of excitement i have for this video! Finally about to get cosy and watch! Of course I've already clicked the thumbs up before I've even started watching because YAY!

OMG. To say that you are a very brave girl Tina is putting it mildly. As you know I live in Florida and the water never gets to the temperature that you are stepping in. Number on I have a community swimming pool that is set at 82 degrees Fahrenheit, even that is not hot enough for me until the summer heat hits the water and raises it up to the upper 80’s. Oh well that is just me for you. I truly hope that you didn’t freeze to death in the water, I won’t ask the temperature that would be rude. Enjoy doing your Vlog, I will be avidly watching what happens. Take good care of you and your lovely hubby. Jane from America. 👍😎🧑🏻‍🦰

Absolutely loved it xx hope you and Em are feeling better soon 🥰🥰

Please don’t let people get to you, people who criticise others do it because they have sad lives. It is flipping hard work vlogging, editing and putting yourself out there. You are stars both of you 😘😘

Social media can feel a lonely place sometimes. Still loved the vlog, glad you posted because it's reality and it's good to talk. Know that the negative people and their comments says more about them than you.xx.

Ive been watching your vlog for a little while now and re watching everything and i love your channel ❤❤ stay strong ❤xxxx

Well done for posting Tina, must have been a hard thing to do. Thank you for reminding me to keep it real!

I'm glad you continued on with the vlog. While it might not have been a standard week, it still seemed like lots of high points..beach multiple times, ponies (and kitty), and doggies, AND pizza. I giggled when you and the husband were talking about which direction you were heading, we've all been there lol.

Hi Tina I like watching you on RU-vid and Emilia as well don’t let people put you down stay strong and enjoy doing your blogs your horses are lovely keep up the good work from Kim Wilson

Oh Tina you do a great job on your vlogs and work so hard juggling these so we can all watch, personally I think they are great and love watching, just sad that people try and bring you down, hope you and Em have a great day Eventing and look forward to hear and see all about it, chin up chick you are both fab xx

I love your channel and your friendship with Em xx please don't let the bastards grind you down and keep doing what you do so wonderfully xx myself and my two children are very empathic and that leads to a family of very sensitive people and life can be tough.. And I find the company of animals more my thing nowadays.. Luckily we have lots of animal friends living with us up here in Cumbria and a field of horses next to our house which warms the soul xxx

so I've just finished watching the video, so what I've said in the comments already isn't much help, my heart goes out to you, I think I know exactly what you mean when it comes to that negativity it's hard, try to stay focused on what your doing, & these negative jealous ppl will show themselves up for who they really are, ppl like that will always trip themselves up, they are their own worse enemy ..they can't help themselves. so although it's hard, leave them to it, karma will soon come around hold your head high smile & stay focused on you hope this helps, xxx

i know what you mean about not wanting to go if you have to go by yourself. i have just started in year 7 and i won't walk through a corridor by myself!

Such a real video 💓 don’t let anyone get to u , don’t even no what they have to criticise you about 😢!!🥰

I miss the English country side . So pretty. Love your vlogs❤️ lol your sense of direction is as good as mine

Great vlog! Please keep doing what you do! 99.9% of us love watching what you get up to! People (especially horsey people) love bringing others down. Try not to let it get to you and keep your chin up!

What a beautiful place to be ,,,,keep smiling no matter what. . 😊😊

I was at the show jumping! I was doing the 60 on the rearing horse that scared everyone!😂

Oohhh BIG BIG ups to you for pushing through with this vlog in spite of everything you have to deal with this week !!! You’re awesome and I loved the vlog...!!! Please please do not listen to the haters with their nasty, ignorant comments and whose own lives are obviously so sad they have to spread their poison onto those that least deserve it. Stay the beautiful, honest outgoing person that you are !! Hugs and love 🥰😍❤️

Tina you are doing a great job ! Xx great video 💕

I love your videos and don’t compare yourself to others your amazing the way you are also dinks in the best looking Shetland pony out there

I still don’t get the nastiness on line. I just can’t visualise people getting a kick out if it. Sadly they do and so glad you soldiered on through it with your head held high. It is jealousy. Which is just sad. Anyway. You have plenty of followers who love what you do and what you have to say, even when you go off course, it’s still great content and I thoroughly enjoy all of it. Well done both of you and so sorry about Emily’s Grandma. It’s very hard to ignore all the crap but just crack on doing what you do best. 👊🏼👊🏼❤️❤️

Whatever people are saying or doing it definitely says more about them rather than you! Try to stay positive :)

I seem to be playing catch up with your videos lol so, I know this was 2 yr ago but again I felt a need to leave a comment, I'm a sensitive person too, so I fully understand where you are coming from, I've learnt that the way ppl are with you is a reflection of themselves & has absolutely nothing to do with you, it's completely their problem, so how I deal with it is I either delete, block, & ignore, or all three, I don't feel the need to respond to ppl that are being negative, with what I'm doing I must avoid negativity like the plague you have such a following of awesome ppl who care about you, focus on them, the negative ppl will soon get fed up & move on, unfortunately Im dealing with malicious negative neighbors, who think it's very funny making my dog ( jack Russell) run up & down the fence in the heat we are having, not only is that cruel, but nasty & malicious ... You're a kind thoughtful & caring lady don't allow the negative ppl to bring you down, they do this because you are above them, & they don't like that, so keep positive, keep smiling focus on the ppl who care for you, much love to you xx

Just watched this. Loved it. What salad did you have at subway. I’m a veggie and get a bit stuck what have

You’re fab sod what people think! Love the vlogs xx

I really enjoyed the honesty of this week's vlog, well done for putting it out there. I don't understand why, but some people feel like they have a right to criticise others, often from the comfort/protection of a keyboard - would they say it to your face? If they put half as much energy into living their best lives as they do criticising others, things would be so different. People are strange, and it is hard not to let it get to you. I think you do right to vent about it, talk to people about it and then draw a line say (forgive me but I'm quoting one of my mentors!) "fuck that shit" and get on with living your fabulous life! Don't stop doing what you're doing, notch it up to a "meh" week and look forward to the next one.

Beautiful views Tina

It’s such a hard thing to do, but try to remember other people opinion of you is none of your business and what people say and think says an awful lot more about them than it does about you, two sayings I try to live by! (Even if I get bitchy in my head, I think ‘why am I thinking/feeling this? What is it saying about me?’) I really enjoyed your vlog, I love that you make the most of every waking hour, all your alfresco eating, doing things post work, enjoying down time with your Hubby. You have inspired me to carve out a little more non horsy down time in my life. X

Tina my Dear, I must be missing something. If you have had something bad or disappointing in your life, I am beyond sorry for you, I am a very new subscriber to your channel and I think that I am somewhat behind the program.. I. An see that you are upset and definitely not yourself. Whatever has happened I hope that you get over the sorrow quickly, I send you my Love and comfort and wish that I was there to help you in any way that I could. Take good care sweet girl and your friend Emily too. Jane from America. 👍😎🧑🏻‍🦰

it looks so difernt from when the girls came down to you tina!

Why doesn’t Blue go to the beach with you? Just being nosy! Hope you don’t mind me asking xx

can we get a 2023 version?
