the time off is helping ...
this afternoon she clearly remembered what she was meant to be doing in walk, and we got a halt/walk transition nicely, and even better, we did a good walk/trot/walk transition when she didn't set against me/get her head back up etc, and some nice trot circle.
that was the good note to call a halt on.
but she's a very hairy pony! absolutely no point in clipping when i'm only doing anything at weekends. don't let anyone tell you TB's don't grow a thick coat, cos they do!
jean, the motherboard on the laptop had died. over £200 + vat for new board, + the labour to get it put in - so 6 of one and half a dozen of the other whether to do that or go for a new one, and decided to go for a new one. it's very whizzy, even has a built in web cam! more to the point, 2 years warranty. the hard drive off the old one is now doing duty as an external hard drive, and he chucked in AVG Pro (a anti virus etc. software programme) for free.
so i'm busy reinstalling software ... which, thinking about it, may not have been necessary if i'd connected up the external hard drive....but then i'd have to do that every time!

Molly may be one of those horses that take a few days to process new lessons, eh? Glad she is remembering what's right instead of what's wrong.
Russell R. used to grow a really thick winter coat. Not long, and hairy, but more like sealskin. All I know is that when shedding season comes in the Spring, the barn floor is covered in horse hair from my Thoroughbreds.
Good choice on the laptop, then. No point in investing that kind of money on an older model. The new one sounds like so much more fun!!
