Has anyone been having a bad week in the big wide world?
I went on a charity ride on Sunday with my tb gelding. It was disastrous. The first two and a half miles he was calm and contented then... a pony and cart went past. That had to set him off. The rest of the way round he shivered under me and kept on leaping around. I had both my mum and a friends mum on either side of me holding him with leadropes but whenever he got himself into a tizzy he would jump around, throw in bucks and rears and in general try to get me off. It was obvious he was scared but there was nothing we could do. We were half way so either way it was gonna take a long time to get back. We put up with another 2 and a half miles of this until we reached the field with our trailer to he settled down. It has put a really gloomy feel on this week sadly
. How is everyone else doing? Having a good or bad week?
