Yes, afraid so :D

He only had his shoes off a few weeks ago. I would still be riding him now if he hadn't lost a bit of weight this winter. Back in the summer I still took him for a wander round the fields, trouble is he doesn't do wander very well. The only way I can make him walk is to still use his Pelham and then he tends to half rear and spin if he's not allowed a gallop :D :D Bless

Oh and tell her that he was still showing me up by running off with me in veteran classes up to last year too :D :D

Lol! If you insist :p

I don't have many of Nutmeg, he's not been with us long, and he's had a rough time but hopefully he'll be a changed old man come summer :) He's 29 but he looks a bit older, complete sweetheart, doesn't really need a headcollar just follows you :D

Connie is 30, she was going to be PTS this winter cause she came through the last two badly but she has other ideas :D

Awww Thelwell is an awesome name for a shetland :D
He should do, really want to get rid of the sticking out spine though bless him. His neigh is the cutest thing I've ever heard though, sounds like a sheep :D

Little foalie is going to have a ready set family when it's born, grandma Connie, Grandad Nutmeg, Great-grandma Flicka, Aunties Blacky and Beau and big sisters Flair and Sil :D
