Well bassically Jen met me from school( she took tilly around the block that passes school, with my mum on foot), and i quickly popped on my jogpurs and rode her home (only half a mile from school)!

so once we got back jen said would i like to take her in the school for 5/10mins. so i of course said yes lol!

so about 2/5 mins in jen said do you want to see if she will go into canter?
so i said yes.
so jen said as you come off this corner onto the longside just put your leg on and see if she canters, but if doesnt dont push her.

so i just popped me leg on and we CANTERED, it's very bouncy as she was abit unbalanced but she was brill, so we did it another time, and then we did it on the other rein (on the long side again)!

was very pleased with her.

sorry this is a very indulgent post!

thanks for reading!
