Well done and good on you, redmone. I am actually really jealous and I certainly would fare far worse than you!
My favourite bit of your hilarious report is this bit:
"I'm trotting within 10 minutes and it's not the lazy trot of before!! Eddie obviously knows this instructor too!!!" Awww, you got to love these smart schoolmasters.

Well done you. Yep photos are a must. Don't you just love it when someone informs you the horse does all the work all the rider has to do is sit there?

 

[redmone]

Thanks everyone! Sorry can't quote as I'm on my phone but will do tomorrow! I'm still buzzing but am a bit sore today! I can walk, just not in my "normal" fashion!!!!! I have two pains! One is in my thumbs (???????) and the other, well I'm not going to draw you a picture!!!!

I can't wait for my next lesson, it's doing me the world of good this!!!

: ) xxxx

 

[redmone]

Whoop whoop well done you and please please keep the updates coming your writing is fab

Thank you!

What a fabulous report! Looking forward to reading more as the weeks go by

Thanks, will definately keep updating!!!

oh fantastic sounds like you've had a blast, I haven't ridden in a long time but I'm seriously thinking of booking a lesson, maybe I shall after reading this ...

p.s if you haven't bought a sports Bra already, in the meantime just wear 2 of your normal every day bra's .. sounds illogical but stops em flopping

Do it, do it nOW!!!! I've waited far to long to get back to it, and it won't get easier the longer you leave it!!! If I can do it, you can too!!!!! TWO bras??? Hmmmmmmm

Redmone, we need PICS !!! Fab report x

No pics, sorry!!!!

Yay!!! go redmone! Fab report so glad your back in the saddle. Love that mini and mr stayed to watch.

Can you walk today?

Thanks DH! Partly your encouragement (and JTFD!) to thank for my various aches and pains!! Yes, actually I'm walking MUCH better than I thought I would be. Nowhere near as bad as the first or second time, and I worked loads harder, so it's got to be a sign that I'm improving! Right? RIGHT???!!!!!

ps can anyone tell me, why today my thumbs are aching????????

I love your report, it was like I was there with you! Well done! I recommend a hot bath!

The wine worked better than the hot bath did!!! Glad you liked my report

I so enjoyed reading that, made me smile and giggle in equal amounts. Very very well done xx

Thank you! x

hahaha thank you! Eddie was awesome! He's great to put up with me, he's just right - safe and quiet, but made me giggle when he caught a glimpse of the instructor running behind us and he shot off ahead of her!! He definately can move when he wants to!!!

Well done you. Yep photos are a must. Don't you just love it when someone informs you the horse does all the work all the rider has to do is sit there?

Naw, I was definately the one doing the work!!!!! Photos aren't happening unfortunately, sorry!! Partly because I'm embarrased, but also mainly because Eddie is not mine and I feel wrong posting photos of someone else's horse! Sorry!

Just caught up with this post - love reading all your updates. Well done on the riding lessons. I haven't plucked up the courage for riding lessons but I have ridden my daughter's pony, generally when no-one is around though!!! Actually my older daughter had a day off last week and I rode her pony and she rode my younger daughter's pony and we went for a hack together - it was lovely and I kept saying to myself 'I can't believe I'm actually doing this'. Keep the posts coming and hope you are walking 'more comfortably' now.

Keep up the good work and i'm shore you and daughter will be hacking out together in no time at all. x
