.... and fell off.
After putting my horse out for loan 10 years ago and having a few lessons now and then, I decided to start up again.
I really like the stables I have chosen to ride at and am riding a lovely coloured cob type, but last week trotting with no stirrups and then the wind picking up and spooking my horse I fell off - like a sack of spuds!!. I got straight back on again (with no stirrups too, my instructor wouldn't let me have them back).
This week was fine, I am really enjoying riding him, he's very easy to ride, forward going and responsive so I think he's doing more work than me, but he's a good confidence giver.
My son took some pics so I will find out where to post them.
