Took these pics of Ellis and his mate Ches at 7 am this morning. Snow had just started.
It has snowed all morning and is still going! We have about 4 inches at least. Worked all morning, managed to put foals out for an hour while we did the boxes, then brought them all in again! We're going to be snowed in at this rate.
And just to annoy me even more, I've run out of heating oil!!! I've never run out before, and can't beleive it's happened today of all days. Going to have to find some logs and light the fire!

Well I’m right peaed off as I was meant to be going to Badger’s first dressage today and I was really looking forward to it, and what did I wake up to, THIS! I hate the British weather, I’m moving to Spain!

Horses are all tucked up in their stables as they have been out all night.
 
I just posted pics of our horses in Cambridgeshire in the Picture gallery - we did have about 3 inches but it was not frozen underneath so was ok to drive in.

I don't think it's cold but it's just so wet. Our horses live out 24/7 (first year doing this for mine who is 18) and they didn't seem bothered at all and had even pawed at the snow to get some grass underneath. We have put out several bales of hay for them though.

10am this morning:

I can't believe it's Easter and we have snow!!
