Chatty had her McTimoney check up with Bea today. A couple of very slight adjustments this time and much improved. Her pelvis is now level and needed no work on it and Bea commented on how free and bouncy her trot is now. That was a last check up for this year and she won't see Bea again until the end of March next year.
I have to wait until Wednesday to ride her again and then only in straight lines - ie hacking. We've had a couple of quiet weeks to get over our competition months but it will be back to normal next week. Can't wait!
I have today ordered a book called "Cobs Can!" - Training and Riding the Versatile Cob, by Omar Rabia. This man is a life-long cob enthusiast and I hope to pick up lots of ideas for exercises to practice with my lovely girl through the winter months.

I saw this book advertised in the British Horse magazine. Let us know what you think of it.

Can't believe it is six months since I last posted about Chatty. I have managed to keep her in work over the winter due to the mild weather. She has had her back checked by Bea, her teeth done and her saddle checked and we are now champing at the bit looking forward to our Trec competitions this year.
We Have been practicing our obstacles and have had a couple of jumping lessons. She is now naked, only has her forelock left so that she cools down quickly out on the long orienteering rides.
I will email some up to date photos to Avril of us on a x country clinic yesterday so hopefully she will post them up on the forum for me.
Hope everyone has wintered well.

How lovely Chattysmum. On Good Friday, I had Coco one year - Easter babies! We haven't made as much progress as you I'm afraid but I do find Chatty a bit of an inspiration - something to aim for.
Have fun
Gilly
