Well, today I fell off Belle because she span as I got on. Then I got back on her and went for my lesson. We had a bit of a miscommunication at a tiny jump and she slammed on the brakes and the back of her neck smacked me in the face. It hurt! Now have grazed cheek, swollen chin and cut lip. Plus my back aches where I fell off.

Has anyone else been hit in the face when their horse suddenly stopped? I'm sure it must be a common accident but I just was wondering! It didn't help that she then decided to rear and buck and leap about as I was reeling from the shock, little monster.
The first thing I said to my instructor was "is my nose still straight?!"
