..... from regular riding, Im enjoying being back on board again.
Stopped riding & sold my ponies to have children. Gave up completely for 10 years, got back into ponies when my kids became involved etc then concentrated on my daughter riding, got back into in hand showing. Broke my 2008 filly last year as a 3yo, she took to it like a duck to water, hacking out, riding off the leg, being a star. Havent ridden her since August. Got back on a few days ago and she is riding so well. I dont have a school so straight into hacking out.
I still cant fathom why I trust her so completely & should we never progress past being happy hackers I dont really care. I havent ridden competitively for 21 years though have shown in hand but who knows might just manage back in the show ring.

Well done. :D

She's lovely. Sec D?

Maybe because you knew her before she was ridden and backed her yourself, you just know her really well and really trust each other.
 
shes a sect C, only 13hh so im an official pony squisher ;)
Ive had her since she was 8 months old, she has been shown a lot in hand and has won her WPCS bronze & silver medals. Have to say I love her to bits :)
 
thanks Splashgirl, Im 5'4 but lets say shes quite a well made girl so takes up my leg. She rides big and doesnt feel like a 13 hander to ride :)
