Cheese and piccalilli

Had a really enjoyable session with Remy in the school today. Started with figure of eights, reinback and shoulder in on each rein. Then a little trot work on both reins followed by a really forward walk on a long rein. Before finishing I asked him for the first time for quarters in, a bit unsure but on asking moved his quarters inside at halt. Finished by riding him back down the lane. It feels like his shoulders are starting to loosen up now and he's getting better balanced. The trot transitions were, on the whole quite nice too.

I've just borrowed a friends Pete Ramey DVD's and finding them really interesting, makes me want to be much more knowledgeable about my horses feet.
Our lovely neighbours who only come out for the summer have just brought us a goody bag of cheshire cheese, tea-bags, piccalilli and biscuits. Yummy.
