for a map (not wholly accurate!) of tonight's ride.
apart from napping on the way out (had to get off and lead down to the next yard and get back on there, he wasn't answering the stick or the leg!) he was good as gold. a minor wobble half way roudn teh 20 acre, he was ahead and unsure, and plagued by loads of flies which were really hacking him off, not a problem. went through the ford both directions with a lead, very good - 2nd time i wondered if he was thinking about rolling, LOL
A little sticky leaving home...but once he gets out a few times, I should think he'd start to enjoy himself. Great about the water, though. It makes things a lot easier when you have a horse you can depend on to get you there and back.
