Well I was feeling rather down last night and sank about 7 beers *shame* so got myself up today and decided to cheer myself up with a ride on the K-man 
Got his tack, went down to the field and got him in, washed off his feet and was rather shamefaced at the state of them
They have badly chipped and hes not been in work and just been in the field 
Anyways I got him tacked up and rode slowly down the lane, he was feeling his feet a little but wasnt hesitant just placing them carefull on the grassy bits. Got him onto the road and he was better on the flat concrete so decided to go to the forest
Well got in and he immediately started striding out, he was just happy and remembered his favourite galloping place ;D
Barely got him to the bottom of the hill in walk he wanted to trot but it was a bit mushy and didnt want any slipping. We trotted along the straight then as soon as he got a bit of firm earth under his hooves he was asking to go so i dropped the reins picked up my phone and almost heard him shout WOOOOHOOOO lol as he took off along the track

After the turn into the other stretch I clicked at him and he went into Kia speedy mode and we hared up the stretch, I was laughing and woohoo-ing myself haha he stopped at the top so as I could duck under the trees then we walked along the slightly mushy bit back to the bottom of the hill and he perked up again and he galloped off back up the hill I was in heaven felt SOOOOO GOOOOD to be back on my boy and him being the wee horse I can trust 100%.
Utter bliss. I got off at the top of the holl and walked him back inhand to the yard, going to have to get the farrier out to his feet.
Utterly happy beyond belief I was after that!!! we were only out for about 40mins as well haha
