Two horses? No problem......


Tried something new yesterday, hadn't been able to ride since Adam's visit (school holidays ) and finally got a morning without the kids when it wasn't raining, so off I went up to Jane's all ready to go, but she couldn't ride after all. Sod it,I thought, I'll go anyway and take Maverick on the lead rein cos they both need the exercise.

It worked really well, we were out for about an hour, Mav had a couple of spooky moments but I had him on a long line so I just let out more rope then reeled it back in again. The biggest problem was stopping him stuffing his face every time we went past some grass......

And on the roads (there's not a lot of traffic round here) Mav just tucked himself behind Gandalf when a car came past, such a good boy......

Then in the afternoon, the farrier came to trim the girls' hooves, I was a bit worried Kinna wouldn't want to play after all the vet trauma this week (they tried to take a blood sample from her, even sedated she was having none of it!) but the farrier made a point of being nice to her before he even started and she was good as gold.

I love Kinna, she's got such beautiful markings.
