Some of you may have read my post a couple of weeks ago about my jumping confidence issues - basically, I didn't jump for a long time, and I'm now very nervous about anything other than tiny fences, and jumping from canter.
Our yard had its weekly jumping night last night, I took Dylan in and did a clear round
we trotted most of it, and it was really tiny, but we got round and I was so pleased I've agreed to do it again next week, and am doing the (little) pairs class with my sister.
Only bad note was when I told my dad I'd done a clear round, he said, "Is that all you're doing?", and when I told him it was he said, "Oh, so he's just a hacking pony then?" Gee, thanks Dad. As I've never been interested in competing, I only really wanted a horse for hacking, but clearly that's not good enough ... grr
Still proud of myself (and lovely Dylan) though
