Re: Brigadier General ez-ez
Oh Trish.. after that in depth commentry backed by your Diagram there.. I found myself liking this thing.. so I gave it a go... I also have a diagram too.. this is how it went:
I entered the arena in trot down the centre line and turned right.. but the bloody horse turned too fast and I fell off and bruised my right butt cheek (Area A on diagram).
I jumped on the horse again and changed the rein across the diagonal M. I trotted 20 m circle.. but my butt was in so much pain, I slid off and fell again, fractured my shoulder (Area B on Diagram)..
This required that I climb on the horse again and change the rein K to M and as I trotted a 20m circle.. a stupid rat passed by and scared the horse, knocked me off quick smart and I ended up breaking my right leg (Area C on Diagram)..
I couldn't walk fast, but I hled on and struggled onto the horse's back again and made it do a medium walk, after two half 10 m circles.. the horse twitched and I found my slef flying, and landing right on my left butt cheek (Area D in Diagram)...
So I had to walk with relaxed rein coz I was in so much pain.. I managed to gather up gather up and tried trotting again.. but as I was doing the 20 m Circle, the pulled it's head forward so fast and I didn't have a relaxed rein, so I fell forward, did a somersault and landed on, and broke my neck (area E in diagram)...
Determined I was, I was up on my feet and ran around the horse to jump on again, but I spooked the bugger and it kicked me so hard, it fractured my back (area F in diagram)..
I got really mad by then... I gave up.. went around, faced the horse and yelled.. I spooked him again and he head butted me so hard I went flying, smashed my head on the wall (Area G in diagram)..
Two blokes come around with a strtcher, put me on and run across the diagonal to the canter at 20m per hours all the way to the parked ambulance where my nightmere came to a halt.
But I have to say, it was fun.

Hmm. Topless was worth waiting for but I'm still stinging from the insults about my dressage practice. Very serious business this - cantering circles round the living room! And add to that the final trot, halt and salute!
Just in case you want to try it at home....
Enter arena in trot down the centre line and turn right. Change the rein across the diagonal M (J on diagram) - K. Trot 20 m circle at A. Change the rein K to M (J on diagram). Trot a 20m circle at C. Back to walk at M. Medium walk to B. Two half 10 m circles B - X, X to E. Walk with relaxed rein E to B. Gather up reins at B, trot B - M(J) and canter M (J) - C. Canter 20 m Circle at E, continue canter to F, canter across the diagonal to X, come back to trot and pick up canter at H/C. Canter 20 m circle at B. Continue canter to K, canter diagonal K - X, return to trot, trot to E, half 10 m circle E - X, trot to G (just short of C), halt and salute!
And if you want to give it a try, here's the diagram you need!
(Just have this wonderful mental picture of you all trying to do it!! LOL)
