Not slacking multitasking
well, he has been rather enjoying himself I think so far record stands at 4 outings since november and yet to come back without a rosette which I am v surprised at! Topped our max mark today up to 66% in novice 20 with the comment 'a super pony who loves his work'!
Frank says he very much agrees with the first bit and although he understands the sentiment of the second half he was really quite happy in the field in the sunshine today
though if the galloping/bucking/rearing was anything to go by while I hitched up the trailer (in the field I hasten to add!
) he did actually fancy a trip out though I suspect that's because the last 2 weekends he has got to go the beach
.
We did a second test today (N35) and await the result on that, seemed ok apart from the spook at the white boards because the sun was on them
makes them look totally different don't you know, even when you are nearly 18! but afaik withou that result he is now on 14 points
Pleased I took his legs off in the end as he was getting so sweaty, this is the first winter that I have been able to work him most days. He would look much smarter with the bottom off too but given the recent weather he is quite happy that I didn't
need to keep old bones warm
though tbf chopping him in half like that never does anything for his waistline
.
Obv in picture asleep... conserving energy for when it is actually required
oh and please do admire my new (2nd hand) posh top boots which have kindly been donated by a fellow hhoer who obv thought I looked a bit of a scruff in my mum's 33yo ones which were a bit short
I am mildly threatening him with having a play at an elementary before my winter membership expires
