17th November, 2012 In Which Jenny Eats a Sally

It's a privilege to have friends like Jenny Major and Bonwen Packham. We've just had a happy couple of days planning the next Hands on Horsemanship Courses which will be one day courses next year. A good excuse also for a bit of touristing and an Indian meal.

Wild pony, Tao, recognises friends when he sees them.

I took advantage of an extra rider and leader so that we could take Sian's two starters our together for the first time. Coco was perfectly fine with a new rider and friend on the ground. This was only their second ride out on the Forest and it was drama-less. Thanks to all the home work that Sian has done,  leading them out on their own as youngsters, both horses are independent of each other and happily go along in their own little world without wanting to cling to one another.
