Ladypig went horseriding Saturday morning, so I took the dogs accross shotover Hill. Blazing sun, crisp cold air, lovely view over Oxford. Took a paper. Could have stayed up there all day if I'd taken a bit of grub and a flask of coffee.
It's very difficult to stay motivated to do any work. I might just hide in the van and claim poor access to site.

she has ridden since very young, and only rides horses she's spent a long time with.
She sort of explained that she trusts the horse to back out if a jump is too long or too high. On a basic hack a horse isn't gonna do anything to endanger itself, and she doesn't really ride jumps anymore as it's got worse.
She was in to dressage, and if it wasn't for a tragedy with her horse and a lack of funding back then, she would have ridden for paralympic dresage.
I'm constantly impressed with how she copes considering how little she can see, also, 0 depth perception.

that makes sense because i think trust is the main thing with horses
i did a lot of riding as a kid, but fundamentally i was never going to be any better than basic competence because i never quite trusted that i wouldn't fall off and really hurt myself.
dressage is properly skilful. hopefully one day she will get to do more of it.
