of my new girl (Storm). She's a 15.2hh 6 year old appoloosa. I've had her for a few weeks now & we are doing really well together.

These pictures (not great, but give you an idea) were taken the day after she arrived, she is looking fitter already. I'll take some more soon so you can see how she is doing.
My OH bullied me into buying her, well actually he did the bidding. He then caught the bug & within a week he'd gone out & brought himself another girl, after losing his in the spring. She's the chestnut in the last picture. She's a 13 year old 16.1hh TB called Rogue. Not what I would have picked for him as he isn't a very experienced rider, but she has re-awakened his interest in riding again & has re-started lessons so that's all good.
Storm won't replace Cloud, but she is a lovely girl & probably a better match for me. She's given me so much more confidence in the short time I have been with her - I even popped her over a small jump last week & managed buckle-end cantering, I could never do that with Cloud.
Can't wait introduce the annual yard beauty contest as we definately have the prettiest girls on the yard!
