it's a good while since i've done this, stopped because she was not with it at all. sinc ethen i've done some more reading and thinking, and had a lesson (thanks Jenny) and reviewed Max's DVD on the point as well - i was long reining per Max, not per Jenny (not having the new roller back yet).
decided to put the BB on to avoid problems of her setting her jaw
and we were hugely better than last time. I was working the outside rein better to get her moving/round and thus not pulling so hard on the inside.
did about half and hour walk/trot/ different directions, circles and large. was very pleased with her.
she was in and done by 5 as i had a late meeting and the nights are drawing in, enought haylage to sink a battleship - this is the first winter she's gone into looking thin ....
the haylage i tipped - sorted itself out whilst outside so i rescued it

Good job on the longlining. The outside rein is the key, as it is when you ride.
Glad you got some work in without being rained on. That was certainly a novelty! *G*
