So, here goes the introduction I'm Sophie, I'm 20 years old, live in West Sussex (in the Gatwick region in case there's anyone else local to me!) and have just brought my first horse - a 17 (something!) hands high, ten year old Irish Thoroughbreed, who goes by the name Chester! I brought him, largely as I felt SO sorry for him as he's been a bit unloved in recent times - I'm hoping he's going to make a rather nice happy hacker! Unfortunately, the the poor old boy has been hammered into the ground previously by some utter twit and as a result has a slightly dodgy hock and the vet has also diagnosed him as having 'Shivers' but does believe that he'll be able to hack and lightly school for some years to come. So, Chester's a bit of a project at the moment but I'm in no rush to do anything with him - which is just as well! To be honest, even if he doesn't do much else in life ... he'll just become a rather large family pet to spoil rotten as everyone else in my family have become as smitten as I have with him I'm pretty new to IH - as previously have just ridden and shared for other people and all of whom have been into much more traditional methods, so I'm looking forward to learning lots and putting it all into practise with Chester That's about it I think, I hope to have lots of fun here
