    A fun way to end the year.

    Ok This is going to be my last post on here. Yes my hands move but he is not being socked in the mouth as my reins are so long. Yes my legs flap about (A habbit that had gone away but seems to have crept back on this day) But they have hardly any effect and that includes the spurs which are...

    Yes we have been here before. You'd think I would lurn hay ho. I guess my vet, My dressage trainer, all the judges at all the shows I've been to over this last year are wrong. I'm the worlds worst rider and my pony is crippled lame. I'm sorry I'm not perfect. I've never said i'm a good rider...

    Anyone else have a Rushmoor pony ( New Forest)

    Foresters are the best :D I have 3 now. Wish I could afford to have more. I have a Tiptoe, A Hilltop and Herbie (who is to special to have a prefix) :P

    Thankyou. I'm hoping he will. He was champion of the pre sale foal show. I'm taking him to a showing clinic in Jan so will see what the show producer thinks of him and hopefuly get him started on the right track for his showing career. The long term goal is do do LR/FR with him (Providing I can...

    Tiarella They can be stubbon. Herbie deffinatly has a stubbon streak. Merryn my chestnut forester is lovely though the sweetest most genuin pony you could ever wish to meet. My foal is still an unknown quantity. He seems sweet at the mo but he's only 7 months old so I guess time will tell ;)...

    A fun way to end the year.

    Only so many times I can say he's been checked out he's not lame. He does a head nodding thing when he's not going properly forward and my reins are to long. It does make him appear to be lame but he's not. Tiarella thankyou I sometimes wonder how I do it to. It's hard going but worth it. I was...

    Thankyou julie111. He does a head nodding thing sometimes which makes him look lame. If he was lame I wouldn't be riding him.

    Thankyou Bleakmidwinter556 I think the % was a little genorous to be honest. Rib was very painful esp as I had taken pain killers in the morning but my body desided to reject them and I threw them streaight back up again. Shame as my riding realy suffered for it and old habbits seemed to creap...

    No offence. He does a head nodding thing when he's not forward enough and my reins are to long. It makes him look unsound but he's not I promise you.

    Is it ever appropriate to ask for money?

    The last 8 months of Lucys life cost me over £8000 wish I had thought of asking for donations online ;) Instead I got more work, went without lifes little extras and arranged a payment plan with the vets (the full bill wasn't paid off till nearly 2 years after I lost her) but then my ponies...

    A fun way to end the year.

    No offence at all FlyingCircus and my legs honestly don't normaly flap like that anymore. (I have only started using spurs recently because of the leg flapping thing.) Think the saddle slipping didn't help my riding either sitting halfway up his neck doesn't make things easy. I should have...
