I was just walking to my car after taking kids to see a 'magic man' tonight and spotted a young boy riding towards us, we were parked on a narrow road. I stopped him and asked if he had a nice hack (just to start a conversation off) and where he had been, he told me he had been around the lanes and had a canter over a few fields. Apparently he was excercising his nan's pony for her (he has been riding since he was 5)
I couldnt help but be concerned for him as he trotted away down the lane, do you think an 11 yr old hacking out alone is sensible?? (he didnt have any hi-viz wear on either, and it was nearly 6pm)
