my dad called me up today to see if id go ride a mare he has just bought, off i toddle thinking yer 13.2 no probs!! well what a sweet little thing she is :wub: needs a bit of top to her but generally ok , so off i went long reining her down the lane beside the bypass, all good , i even had a little run myself to give her a quicker trot , she slowed brillaint , turned like a little star , so dad then asked me to get on , so i laid across her first to see how she was then took her up to our marsh , she hunched up a couple of times , but being bareback i could feel every muscle twitch and was ready to bail out if needed :lol: she really went well , so got off had a good look at her all over , i like her :wub: then he comes out with the classic , she hasnt had anything done for about 7 yrs because she threw everyone off!!! :oops:

i was right proud of myself because i vaulted straight on and i havent done that for a few years lol :clown:

he has called her molly :wub:

( im riding again tomorrow :lol: )

vets coming on wednesday to do her teeth as they need a bit of a sort out :thumbsup:

My favourite breed - I love Freisians - what colour is she?
 
she is black too , i would say the foal would make around 15 hands at maturity? hmmmmm nice size for a daddy to give his daughter :- "
 
she sounds a lovely girl cant wait to see pics of her and the new baby :wub:
 
I haven't got a clue what you were actually doing

Tanya............but it kept you off the streets and

occupied so it cant be a bad thing :lol:
 
Oh Tanya.. :lol: and I was going to start a new thread asking how the new 'toy' had gone this afternoon... (w00t) :thumbsup: :oops:

she sounds lovely btw... :wub: but hows your bum... :lol:

I'm really envious! I wishI could ride. :huggles:
Me too! It was always something I wanted to do :) Im too old to learn now :b

(btw, I thought freisians were cows? :blink: :wacko: so I think pictures would be great too :thumbsup: )
 
Aww she sounds an absolute sweetheart :wub: I absolutely adore horses :huggles:

It's never too late to learn to ride tho......I always dreamt of it but didn't sit on my first horse until I was 27 years old and there's often stories in the horsey mags by folks who haven't started until they are in their 60's or 70's :thumbsup:

Freisians ARE gorgeous :wub: :wub: :wub: For those who've never seen one....
