Hi all, Just to let you know that your cuddly loveable moderator - yes thats me!!! ;D - will NOT be moderating the forum from Friday 6th Feb for approx 2 weeks. Due to having a cr*ppy internet provider I will have very limited internet access during that time and will be unable to visit the forum very often and will not have time to check all the posts. Please try and follow the forum rules in the meantime and play nicely together ;D I will miss you all

I think It's a matter of honour that we don't abuse the forum with inappropriate posts during your absence. I just hope you will have a smoothly running house move and that you will soon settle in your new abode.
All the luck in the world and come back soon.

Claire we will miss you. Good luck with the move, hopefully the weather will favour you and your removal men will be conscientious - fingers crossed.
Having no internet is going to drive you mad, my laptop went haywire at the weekend so I had no internet for 2/3 days. I really missed it!

Has a better seat on a horse than me And me. we better do lots of trotting without stirrups (can you tell I've been reading the Noel and Henry's?)

Oh yes, Zoe, I certainly can tell. I think only JPT wrote about rotting without stirrups in my English speaking pony book collection (in Germany, you spend half your life with crossed stirrups). So the Noel and Henry series jumps up in front of my eyes immediately.
It IS a great way to improve ones seat, not just being lunged but when schooling a horse as well. I prefer it to stirrups as I do all but my warming up at the sitting trot and it's much easier with stirrups crossed as I tend to lose them otherwise, which shows what a crap rider I am and with far less excuse than others..
So Claire, what's the new moderator called then? Or maybe we should ask Zoe? Does the new moderator really have such a big belly? Makes for a good deep seat with or without stirrups. And the horse or pony? Name, breeding, age, gender?
Gosh, I'm going to miss you all during our holiday (although I'm so excited about going, I'm awake half the night thinking off white beaches and blue water).

Have a great holiday Konstanze. I ride my daughters pony with no stirrups but that's only because my feet are a bit big for her stirrups and I feel safer with a quicker evacuation plan haha

I love bareback! Especialy jumping I think its amazing =] So whats the rebelious plan then guys ? Bareback you really become one with your horse, you can feel through your body every movement, every thought of your horse. I ride most of my horses bareback as youngsters and then again, when they have come to a certain point in their training. Not every horse can be ridden that way, my Black, Storm's father reared up every time I got on his bony back without a saddle. But most horses enjoy being ridden bareback, as long as the rider sits in balance and with a minimum weight on the actual backbone. You and your gorgeous horse, Mysteryarab obviously love it as much as I do, and you're damn good at it, looking at your avatar.
