Hot hot hot!

Yesterday, our instructor had to leave early, so we had a different one, and a change of horses halfway through the lesson. I started out on Tess, which was great, but ended up on Hols. Sure, she's great once she gets going, but when she just bombs into the middle of the school? Not so fun.
It was so hot. About 27 degrees. I was banging my legs down on her sides just to try and make her trot in a circle, so of course I was exhausted. We did counterbend on a circle, which feels very weird. You have to use a hell of a lot of leg in order to keep them on the circle, and a lot of indirect rein too.
Just a short post this time, the cousins are coming :)
