Lesson with John Parker

[Ezme]

Hi all, i know there are only a few of us who drive on here but I guessed this is as good a place as any to ask. I'm going to Burghley next weekend as part of my 21st birthday pressent and while I'm that end of the country mum's said I can have a leasson with john parker. Ok, I did get rather over excited at this prospect, well I mean who wouldn't he's just the bussiness, but has anyone acctually had a lesson with him? What's your experience? I've had lessons with Mark Broadbent before and he's fab but i know some high level competitors don't translate to teaching too well. Thanks

I had my first ever lesson with John Parker, before we got ponies we went to have a day with him. I have also had lessons with Mark too, just before the indoor nationals this year as he came to service our carriages (he made some of them).

I will you PM about them slightly later.
