My trainer ( ie my long suffering instructor who hasnt managed to shake me yet) emailed the other day saying she had spaces on a XC lesson amongst other treats so I jumped at the chance to take my friend flicka for a little spin.
On the morning of the lesson it became obvious that the ground was a little too wet for XC so luckily as the venue is also the base of a local eventer we decided on going in the school to use their arena xc and set up xc exercises in a confined (thank god) space.
Now I have to say- it was so so good for her to have to listen to me rather than me be at her mercy as is often the case. Ruby's manner, attitude and exuberance were explained to the other people in the session and she was allowed to do things her way, in a fashion!
