Coming over here & taking your jobs since 1900
For my tb spring means yummy grass, lovely tender leaves and delicious blossom in the hedgerows. I can see me looking like one of those small kids on a Shetland trying to pull the head up.
I think I can, at least today!I shall come back to this thread tomorrow lunchtime, am booked into my 1st clinic in 6 months, tomorrow morning ...
Been doing it for 50 years, still haven't quite grasped it...
I never could ride but my goodness I had a sticky arse in a crisis . Hunting teaches some skills.
Which cheek? .Me neither
Totally agree. F spooked at nothing on the Fun Ride this morning. Although I think I may have acquired a ‘mane graze ‘ on my cheek. It was our first FR of the year.
Just below my right eye.Which cheek? .
Not in Devon are you? OH is volunteering at a FR today.
I think that one's like flying, really easy... Its the landing unscathed part that is complicated!My mum says ‘any fool can gallop a horse’. Me, I’m not so sure
My very diplomatic and never contradictory instructor regularly says that horse riding isn't a sport for intellectuals... He then bemoans the fact that most of the kids he teaches can't remember a five jump course (the "jumps" are sometimes even just poles on the ground between the jumping wings, so even the stress excuse doesn't even work).My last instructor told me that I actually ride very well. I understand the correct use of the aids and the outcomes of using them. I always make the right decision but....
I overthink everything, assume the question is more complicated than it is so don't do what I should.
So if I could switch my brain off, I'd be a much better rider

Oh that's me - along with a right lower leg doing something quirkyI always think I've improved until someone videos me, then I think, "who on earth is that fat old lump bumbling around like a complete idiot?"
