I'm just curious.........!!!!!

[_OC_]

Hello now I don't know if it's me-but as the evenings draw in I feel this need to do the big fat one at break neck speed to get home(I don't skip on things just do it faster!!)I feel I'm on some mission to not be the last one out of the yard which I am always!! If I do get out before the last one I feel this real achievement that I'm off home before them and don't have to lock up!! It is a winter thing it always creeps up from now to the end of February -can't go any sooner as finish work at 5.30 pm-do others feel like me or am I

what are you talking about...last one on the yard nowadays leaves after 7pm (thinking about forcibly evicting them at night!....lol!)

I feel like this sometimes, now the nights are drawing in i dont even see anyone. I work up London so get down later than everyone else anyway and now they have gone home before i even get there!!

i HATE being down the yard on my own in the dark and especially locking up as i am in the middle of nowhere with trees and bushes surrounding me

its not just you, i think most people start doing it when it gets colder, just want to get home where its warm, especially on days like this when its raining!

I know exactly how you feel, I definitely want to get it all done, not even inclined to hand around and chat.

I'm taking even longer than usual atm, as I can't leave them eating in the stable. I have to wait for B to finish eating, she eats tied up outside and for the foal to finish, (he eats in the stable) before I can leave. Good job I'v got a good book. Depending on the weather (as in what time I go up to do them), I am home between 7 & 8.30pm atm

Glad to hear it's not just me! I have had my annual clearout so that EVERYTHING has it's place (even down to where each brush goes in the grooming box - positively anal...), everything is clean, everything organised. I have a highly efficient system, with everything at my fingertips as much as possible, so that it can be done in the minimum amount of time possible - of course things do take longer now as there's so much more to do when the horse is in a stable, wearing a rug & you're contending with mud. I do spend time grooming & fussing, but the 'chores' are certainly done at high speed!
