I can no longer watch or look at photos of people jumping without p*ssing myself imagining them hovering over a public toilet seat. :eek::o:D

Thanks for that :D

Thats made my day :cool:

Wow my first ever FAO!!!! I'm flattered!!!!! :cool:

Just think how much fun you'll have watching showjumping now!!!! :D

All my "lightbulb moments" are toilet related or rude, they stick in your mind better, another instructor told me that the feeling of connecting your stomach muscles when you are riding should be like trying to squeeze a little fart out......

ooooow no Katt....please no more, stop right there! lol

I did try the 'hovering over pulic sh*tters technique' 5 minutes ago when I needed to go to loo but I failed miserably :D maybe that explains my terrible jumping position. :rolleyes:

do not worry, I shall keep on practicing though :D
 
Maybe kenzo in future you should only hover above the toilet seat. So you can perfect your position!!!! LOL

Indeed, I could also imagine the one liner bellowing from Geoff B....you know the one, the nudest and the barb wire fence, that may help :eek::D
 
Hehehe, thanks for that! Now the rest of us are scarred too!

On a similar note when struggling to sit with the horse in canter, my instructor just screamed "Shag the saddle!!!"... I was about 15, nearly fell off I was laughing so much.

When I finished my laughter fit I explained she was going to have to demonstrate as I had no expericence in such areas! She was very obliging and the demonstration set me off into gales of laughter again. I wasn't the only one amused though... the YO's face was funny as he happened to walk by and tried his VERY best not to laugh as much as me ;)
