I had a private xc lesson today! I'm so happy
Started with a little log, joined in up with the other 2 in the line. Jumped a upright up to a bank round by a school. Then joined another upright in the bottom corner of the field 
Then jumped all the fences together Then went into another field, with two uprights on a dogleg. The second time I jumped them, he took a stride out and I slipped the reins so I didn't pull him in the mouth, but he was very good and came back to trot for me to get them back. Finally jumped a small step up, only about 1'9". He jumped it great, so we linked the first part of the dogsleg to the step up Ok so the jumps were only 1'9 to 2" , but I'm pleased with myself, I actually enjoyed it! He's the best pony in the RS to xc because he is very sensible and doesn't get strong and is really honest
