darth_hamster and I are off trekking at Cannock Chase this afternoon, as part of a trip organised by one of my fellow members of chambers (he thought it would be fun if we sat on horses for a change instead of just wearing bits of their hair.)

darth_hamster has spent a lot of time on horses. I have never been on one in my life. I've been promised one suitable for a (large) beginner, but this could be entertaining...
