she hasnt been off the farm for ages now, as she is rising 2 i thought maybe she should go and do some sight seeing on a little walk, took her the end of the lane to be met by a cattle trailer rattling down the rd followed by a tipper wagon, she just said ooo! we then went across the rd, she stood there while cars appraoched the bend and went up the side of us, and cars behind waiting for us to shift, went down the lane to be met by mad dog booming, and then across a pack horse bridge wich is very high, them back home, all the while the other 3 shouting and calling after her, she never looked back once or worried, so im dead proud of her, she is walking in hand better than the last time she was out, in her own space, any hoo brought her home and groomed off mi mounting block, and rested on her back while i chatted to her, ,, she is one hell of a baby cucumber, her she is being muffin the mule,lol

What a clever grown up girlie - she dealt with an awful lot of things there Jen, and all credit to you for how she took everything in her stride. And wow isn't she pretty!

Ooh jen1, would you like to take my Warrior out on the same route now??? You seem to have some sort of knack with unexpected obstacles, etc.
Fleur looks lovely. How big is she going to be?

Well done you Jen!!! I think I heard Jen say somewhere else that she is now 15.2ish - and obviously still got a way to go!
My boy could do with a bit of your sort of bombproofing like that:-)

Good on Fleur. What a star. I love that photo of you Jen, what are you saying to her? swear words,lol, i had a huge blister on both feet, she just went ape at the show, wanted to know why she couldn't kiss all the other horses that were there, thing it as soon as we turned away from the horsey bit and headed home, there were 1000's of people all the stuff you see at agri shows, she walked through the lot, like butter wouldn't melt, Fleur will be about 15hh if not 15,2, kind of imbetween, im still searching for some scary things, chased he with a wheelie bin this morning , she just give me a huh! cant you just drop this lesson thing for a mo, so wheelie bins must be ok, she has done a bit of long reining in her diddy saddle and a loose bungee, learnt walk trot on straight lines on the longriens, but most importantly she stands for ages till i tell her to walk on, i do have help sometimes, from my friend who is a god send at times, when im not sure about stuff, she gives me a kick up the bum, sounds like a i do load with her but i don't just something done well a few times, i just wish all the blooming traffic would disappear so i could lead ride, in the real world and not just round the farm, thanks for your kind comments,
