Been having terrible trouble with vehicles on the road, so gone all out hi viz! Rug, boots and a hood for him! I’ve also got myself some new hi viz jods & gloves!
I’m not that keen on the hood but for now it is ok. Harry not too impressed with it either but will quite happily wear it...
Wow @Wishing4Wings thats quite some hours away! Makes Charlie’s a couple of hours drive away seem nothing at all!
Are you coping ok without him at home? Sounds like he has a great roommate & fingers crossed they do get some work done!
I’m certainly not coping here! Can’t seem to snap out of it...
Got to fly. Had a nice hack out last Friday on Harry & an early morning hack this morning on Lottie. Went at 6.30 this morning as we have been pushing near on 30c today, similar yesterday and it’s forecast to last until Friday :cool: :cool:
Charlie has flown the nest :hit He’s got himself a job on a pheasant & partridge rearing Farm. It’s initially for 2 months but they have offered him over winter too if he’s interested. Got a static caravan to live in whilst he’s there as it’s up near the dales in North Yorkshire. Feeling real...
Got a to fly for today. Nice plod round the village on Harry with Courtney and another livery. Bit cooler today which was pleasant. Got another ride planned for tomorrow and Saturday so I’m racking them up this week :lol:
Got a to fly for today on Lottie. Nice hack out round the village with Courtney again. Was pretty humid today so think I’m going to have to go back early morning riding before it gets too warm!
Got to fly so far this week. Been out for a hack yesterday & today with just Courtney so only the 2 of us. All uneventful I’m pleased to say & very pleasant if not a little warm!
Harry concerned me though when I’d put him back out :hmm He got down and had a roll but it took him 2 attempts...
Got a to fly for yesterday. Just four of us round the village for a nice quiet hack as one of my other livery friend was taking her new mare out the first time. She’s only had her a week so I’m pleased it all went well for her as she’s not had much luck the past year. Her horse she had for a...
The sheep had sneaked in there with them the other week but they got moved to a field with stock netting so definitely no escaping for them since!
Since I took the electric fence down they haven’t done it anymore :idunno So I’m putting it down to flies bothering them or a fox or badger that may...
:gig They had added more overnight on Wednesday :hmm
So to try & stop them I removed the electric fence yesterday so the field is now big again. I’m hoping when I go this morning they have not started another :fl
Got a to fly for a hack out on Lottie yesterday. Becky is still managing to come with us bike but I’m not sure for how much longer as her knees are now touching her baby bump :gig
Not sure what H and Bran were doing last night but there was a pretty much perfect circle in the field this...
Last of the hay is now stored :clap Farmer took us the first 24 bales on his big trailer then Scott took the last 7 through yesterday for us. Glad that’s out of the way for this year! Much easier than last year as we’ve had it done in round bales rather than the small bales. Got it stored at a...
Got to fly for this morning. Ridden Lottie in the school and then went out for a hack on Harry with 7 others! We were quite a team with 8 of us all together. Some car drivers were not happy with so many of us to over take but all went well and we had a nice time :)
Got a to fly for this morning on Harry. Had a nice hack out around the village with his girlfriend Abbie. He was super pleased to see her as Abbie’s mum has been away this week on holiday so we’ve not been out together since last Saturday.
I’ve got one for last Saturday on Harry, Tuesday on Lottie and another for today on Harry again. All hacking out so nice & pleasurable. Charlie’s Courtney came with me today on Saffy and was like a pea on a drum plus the poor lass had to trot most of the way to keep up with Harry’s walk...
I did thanks Wishing :) It was a different photographer today and they come with a mobile/trailer studio so they can print off straight away once you have picked your picture.
We got a 1st, a 2nd & a 6th today at the show :) Pretty disappointing getting the 6th in the novice ridden as my canter was appalling, struck off on the wrong leg then I was all over the place :oops: All my own fault with getting flustered and not remembering everything I needed to do but I’m...
