yes i did. i posted for advice a few weeks ago as i wanted all you good peoples' advice.i booked a lesson and nervously arrived.had a moment when i saw the size of her 16.1hh but beautiful.the nerves got the better of me for a few minutes and refused to get on.they walked jake (horse) round for a minute until i composed myself then on i got.whee!!!!!! after being led around for ten minutes i took control and went myself.i felt utterly thrilled.am so proud of the horse for carrying me and myself for getting on her. lessons booked again should be jumping within a few months.so a mega thanx to all those who gave me a cyber push.talk about a confidence boost.thanks
oh i'm going to boo.my childhood dream of owning one has reared its head again and this time i can include the getting on its back as well.when i start to look good in the jodhs again then i'm really going to celebrate.i might be in a nursing home by that time but by god i'll have thighs to die for!!!!
