Welcome to Village Farm 

you got that the other way round

+A Horse Called Pigeon Don't you just hate it when your horse is all the way on the other side of the giant paddock and then doesn't want to come in? It drives me nuts!!!!!!!!!! :-)

+Jemima Darling Just do it - lol ;-)

ForestBells I live just over the road LITTERALY!!

+DanceMomsForever365.... LOL - I think I do the same thing, over jumping smaller fences! I just try not to think and just follow Pigeon's movement. Not that it always works! Thanks for watching :)

+Lonemole Thanks for watching... I am a GoPro fan :)

+Laima Spetiene... Oh, I am ancient at 37.... old enough to know better! Thanks for watching ;D x

+Comet._.2212 I don't think there is a knack really... just practice and experimenting with bits and tack until you find the right fit for you. Then the horse might get used to that and you start again - lol! A technique I quite like is to take a half halt and soften on alternate reins in time with each stride until I get a reaction... sometimes it works ;-) x

+A Horse Called Pigeon thank you. This will help a lot x

+Madison & Spartan.... Thanks for watching! It's currently £115 per month for us with hay and straw charged as extras. I love the place :) x

Oh wow!! That's so cheap! English facilities here can range from 500$-1600$! I'm in Canada haha but mine is 300$ and I love it!

+A Horse Called Pigeon that is so cheap with those facilities omg!!

I absolutely love your videos! You and pigeon are the best! How old is pij?

+jumping_oxers_xo xoxo Thanks for the compliment :) I love the nickname (added to the 50 names of bay). For flatwork and bimbling I use a loose ring french link snaffle (no martingale) but for jumping and fast hacking I prefer to have some brakes - dutch gag (currently on the bottom ring but softened with a french link) and a running martingale... So far she is going well in that combination! Thanks for watching :) x

Ok thanks. I. Have a youngster that I am breaking in that will go for his first xc schooling on Saturday. He is currently in a egg but snaffle,would you suggest something harsese? Xx

jumping_oxers_xo xoxo I am not experienced with youngsters but my instinct would be to keep him in what he is familiar with and see how he goes. I used to take Pige xc happily in a snaffle... it's only as she has gained experience and confidence that she has gotten bolder and in need of more brakes! Let me know how it goes - hopefully he will do you proud :-) x

+A Horse Called Pigeon OK yeah. and pidge is confident. thanks xxxx

+A Horse Called Pigeon Awww pigeon is such a good girl ! You guys were meant for each other 💜 And I really love all you videos ,😊

+Charles Hope Hahaha... ;-)

Cassington x

Bletchingdon.... On the top of a hill, lol x

Poppy Wade Not really... just walk it twice if you need to and take your time! I like to walk at least once, watch a few ride it, go get ready (and imagine the course in my head constantly), then watch again before and/or after I warm up. Some courses flow better than others though and are easier to learn! Good luck - it just gets harder as your brain gets older ;-) x
