First off, it appears my parents have replaced my horse with a fat fluffy alpaca/llama/yak/highland cow whilst I was at uni - but apparently it is still the same Wilby under a (thick!) layer of fat and fur So please don't tell me he's overweight because there wasn't a lot I could do about it!
We were meant to be making our BD debut today, but their arenas had frozen so it was cancelled So instead we did flatwork in various shades of blue - I believe this qualifies as 'toney-toney' rather than 'matchy-matchy'.
He's such a dude - and he let me ride him with a whip today and didn't make a 'big deal' out of it Last time I rode him with a schooling whip 'proper' (as opposed to my shorter-to-start-with-and-now-even-more-so-because-Bronson-ate-the-end-of-it schooling whip) was when he freaked out, panicked, decked me and then fell over and ended up in horsepital. So even though it doesn't sound like a big deal to anyone else, to me it is!
Hopefully going to have a few lessons then go to a few BDs in the new year, before returning to uni for exams - all five of them
