we weren't expecting them in the chill breeze (not quite as cold as yesterdy, but working on it) but once we were out of the wind - flies all round!
had a really good hack.
wore my winter cord jodhs' - they help the stickability! and the new very thin rubber lined reins I got are a great success - only had cob size in the shop, so hugely long, but it's much easier to keep my reins a correct and consistent length than it was with my favourite continentals - which are now relegated to second favourite in consequence!
Molly did two gates as well, which was good, and has started to listen to my leg - not as much as she should, but compared to her previous ideas, very good. possibly assisted by my continually improving position.
We must have been out for 1 1/2 hours, longest i've been out on her, loads of walk really and a couple of trots.
and she spent most of the ride out in front, so she's getting loads of confidence back
and she didn't nap at her usual place
so i'm very pleased with her indeed!

Good for you and Molly! The pair of you are starting to have fun together.
Had to laugh a bit. Here in the US, the cob size reins/bridle would be smaller/shorter, not longer.
I have the breeches in the bag with the receipt. Should be able to make the exchange sometime this week.
