Cathy and her daughter, Clare kindly braved the winds, the terrible rain and bought Flint back over to Weston Lawns today... (huge hugs and thank you's!)

So, I got up the yard tonight and was greeted by SMELL!!
The wind was blowing peoples barrows over, they were drenched wet, cold, hungry, covered in mud...and I was so glad I was back in the I own a horse clique.
The last time I remember being this happy was when I owned him the first time!! Sounds silly but I really am happy as a pig in you know what.
My stable wall has been re-erected, although it was a bit of a shock when I saw it, its a patch work of brick, breezeblock and wood!! But aslong as he is warm, dry and fed, I suppose the little man doesnt mind.
I still stand by what I said though- They and we dont have stink!!

He wasn't too sure about going up the ramp but a bucket of feed and patience worked fine and I travelled in the back with him and he was fine.His stable was nice and warm and he had a full haynet and I think I saw him smile.Its Townfields sale next 3 days hope you are not going!
Anyone else wanting short term livery or schooling livery give me a call.Flint was a saint to look after, shame you never got to ride out with Claire.
Good luck we will give him a pat when we are next there which I think is next week for a dressage clinic.
 
Hey Pete, your back!!!

Glad you've now got the boy home, do you think he knows where he is?

Would be great to meet up and have a coffee sometime if your around WL.
I am glad he was a saint for you, and I wish you all the best for the livery- you both are fantastic horse people.

And yes.... I will be going opn saturday- I am spending the birthday money I have not got yet!!
 
I'm dead jealous that I have missed Townfields sale, will have to try very hard to treat myself at the Bordeaux International this weekend, well, tomorrow in fact!!!! Sorry to highjack your thread Flintus, I have been watching with interest!
