After a fortninght of long line, we're the same now, - it was just a matter of getting used to it but I also feel we're making progress. I let the lead go a lot of the time and Humph' potters along dragging it behind and occasionally I tread on the end, just to remind him how big his radius is. OH keeps laughing at me, as I get panicky if anything drives past and race to wind the lead up - I remember watching a film centuries ago about Isadora Duncan who was strangled when her long scarf got wound round the wheels of a car!! On the whole though, despite my initial reservations, I think it was a good move and, as Henry's still a bit younger, you'll probably see quicker results!
