Blooming British Weather

[Kenzo]

Booked the day off work today and was looking forward to spending some time with lordship, do some riding and an a trip to Ride-Away and it's just peeing it down

typical! and what am I doing....sat here on the PC on HHO again at my dads...I might as well be work lol

Oh well I have not managed to watch Badminton yet, suppose I could nestle down with a packet of choc chip cookies and a mug of coffee and munch and dip my way through the XC, better late than never.

Pointless post but I'm at a loose end on my day off, not good

i hate this bloody weather too - in rotherham we have a severe weather warning for tomorrow so dont expect any change tomorrow

 

[Hippona]

Yep...its pants.

Managed a ride last night...bit of schooling and a hack.....just as well really, looks like the weekend is going to be just as bad.

Ho hum. At least the ironing will get done...and I'm off for my hair cutting- thats something that doesnt happen often!

 

[Kenzo]

Supposed to be off to Chatsworth as well

looks like it will be a wash out, maybe Sunday will be better?

 

[KatB]

I'm not moaning, I want rain for the ground.... it was getting FAR to hard to do any fast work....

 

[Hippona]

Well thats true.....when I rode last night I managed some good fast work cos the ground was nice and soft but not slippy.

God...we're never happy are we?

I was hoping to go for a good hack today and I woke up to rain!

Just debating whether to chance it and get wet or not!

 

[Kenzo]

hmm well its finally stopped now where I am but you can bet your bottom dollar it will start as soon as I drive up to the yard, then he'll be all wet and soggy of course

.

Could go to my local tack shop and buy him nice new light weight amigo .....but then I'm going back on my word, refusing to rug up in May

but I feel so guilty hmm head/heart which one is it to be

plus there is the fact that I will no doubt spend on other non essential things too.

I wish we had some rain

- forecast said to expect heavy rain all through the night - woke up and we had a shower and thats it!!

Haven't really had any proper rain here since the snow went (mid Feb) and we desperately need some - the grass isn't growing (hay will be non existent at this rate) and the ground is like concrete.

Send some of your rain my way - please!!!

 

[siani1989]

SU- send all the rain and the weather warning to where you are

 

[Taffster]

Taf will be schoooling today then, sure he'll love that!

Sorry I'm going to upset some of you now. I'm not moaning, quite happy actually. My field is so dry i have cracks in it that i can get my hands in the gaps. If we are due this hot summer this year as well I'm making the most of this rain when it comes.

 

[yethersgill]

Its been very wet here, but we did need it. Hope weekend improves, think it is supposed to be damp for most of it.......Chatsworth will be wet (we are only 5 miles from Bakewell)

Kenzo buy the poor lad a new rug

retail therapy

 

[MrsElle]

It's been torrential here since yesterday afternoon and I am happy

The fields were so dry they desperately needed a good soaking. I did feel for poor Ellie though, she was shivering when I went to the field after work, so chucked her a rug on.

Hopefully the grass will start to grow again now !

 

[Slinkyunicorn]

Yey!

Its has started raining here!!

Soggy pusskins has just plonked himself on my lap for a nap!!

 

[Kenzo]

Right I'm off to take pity on my ned and well ....arhhhh, buy him another rug for him to tear up and bust a few more straps etc

I BLAME YOU LOT!!! you are all responsible you naughty people you

 

[spotty_pony]

It's getting faster here!

My horses are in and drying off, looks like I am gonna have to ride in the school today!
