Yipee and he he he and I'm still grinning like a monkey :D

Started lesson. Started poles. My right ankle gave way, so I had to get off :(. Got D1 on. I walked up the yard sulking. Went back to the school and saw D1 jumping Dizz!! Hobbled into school and 'Me too please!'. So I did :D. Lower than D1 had, and it really was kind if Dizzy to actually take off and not treat it with the disdain it (and I) deserved lol, but we did it :D And it was a tiny bit higher than we did last week :D And I didn't sock her in the mouth and I didn't screw it all up too badly :D :D :D

Then D2 got on and walked round cooling her off for me :D

I do have some pictures...., but got to get them off D2's camera; will post later today hopefully :D. We're just off to the local County Show. Fingers crossed! It's the biggest thing Big Cob and D1 have ever been to! :D

Well Done Mrs M!
Sounds like you had a fab time :) I love that feeling when you have a good lesson and it puts you on a high :D
Enjoy the show today and good luck to D1 !
 
Sounds good!!

Re ankles - Mine give way sometimes, they are hyperflexible and sometimes just go all floppy and I can't put any weight through them. A good sturdy pair of short boots & leather gaiters, or long leather riding boots help - and if I am going for a clinic/lesson, I might even wrap them in vet wrap underneath my boots. That way if they collapse, the vet wrap provides some support and I can continue until I get the feeling back!
 
Thankies all :D :D :D, yup, still grinning lol.

Not been in long from the County Show. Hot and sweaty! Will post an update in a mo' :).

Um. Angkle gives way, no idea why, but the pain and inflammation goes from my angle to halfway up the outside of my lower leg. It just seems to collapse on itself and not have any strength. I've taken advice from here and am now looking for a good sports physio :). Will also try vet wrap lol :).

(think I'm more a perspiration at the moment lol :D).
