My horses have taken a long holiday this year! As I have been pregnant and had a little boy start of September. Such a lovely hot summer and I was an uncomfortable heavily pregnant lady who could not manage to get on a horse anymore!
They have all been stars- quite happy to have very little attention and be free living out nearly all year so far.
Mega proud of my mare, who after 7 months off has behaved perfectly- going straight back to hacking out on her own.
My old boy nearly died from some sort of brain cyst causing his head to swell, covering one eye and causing nose bleeds. We thought he would have just a few weeks summer grazing on lots of painkillers but he is still here just has a permanent lump on his head now.
Plan on getting back on the ponies soon- who were backed summer/Autumn 2015!
2017 will be a challenge continuing to manage 4 horses, baby and freelance groom work with him as maternity pay is rubbish!
