Well I'm glad he had a helpful suggestion! What will you ride on in the meantime? I can imagine you hunting bareback, you are brave enough!
Sorry @Jane&Ziggy I have only just seen this, it was only away 1 day so luckily I haven't missed much riding. Oh gosh no way I would be clinging on for dear life! I'm really not that brave I just have a go and hope it turns out ok lol!
