So far, had a great lie in! Off to have a lesson on Ted shortly, followed by a mooch around Gatcombe Park Craft Fair and then my cousin coming up later with the little ones - phew busy day!!!

Hope everyone else has a good day!! (Even if it is a bit wet!) mmmm crumpets...

Morning all

Have a day off- phew! Off to do the horses now- just hope my youngster has been behaving himself! Hubby has done them for the last few days. He was charging around his field yesterday all wound up, hubby stayed but out of sight to make sure he settled. He always does this if I don't appear for a few days- do you think he misses me? lol
After the stables I am off to the tack shop to restock, then home for a bacon buttie

Happy days

Hope you all have a good Saturday
 
Good morning

I have recovered from my quick trip to the big smoke
smile.gif
. Of course I'm not going to get the role, because I now really want it. Ho hum. The chap that interviewed was great, very professional and very good at his job. I enjoyed
smile.gif
.

Got home last night to hear that Friend's car was poorly, so lent her mine to go to the yard. Went with her as she was changing dressing on New Lad's leg. Well, let's just say he wasn't too chuffed at the idea
blush.gif
. Me 'n' Wimbles on his head, tried lifting various legs up (flying lessons!), stompted the poorly leg, so what had looked good when Friend got the dressing off, looked yuck - all sticky outy and blood, blah. Note: we'd tried the gentle approach first! This horse does not respond in the required way to twitches, chifney, anything really - including, as we found out last night, being heavily sedated by the vet. He's a lovely lad, but he's only four and off the track (ex-racehorse) and is learning about being a horse. So, it was a long old day all in all. We left him mumbling at his bed, once we were happy the sedation had worn off enough that he wouldn't choke. I think, despite being swung round and coming close to losing various parts of my anatomy to various of his antics, that he is a lovely lad and he's going to have a very good life with my friend

.

Off to Eland Lodge for coffee and paninies
cool.gif


Have fun y'all.
 
Morning MrsM - were your ears burning last night?
wink.gif
grin.gif
We were talking about you!!
blush.gif
I was going to text you to check you were ok as you didn't appear but my phone is temporarily dead due to drowning in the rain the other day - off to buy a new one!!
shocked.gif
Bloody horses cost you money one way or another!!
mad.gif
Say hi to Wimbles from us all too!!
grin.gif
 
Morning all,
Just trying to summon the energy to get out of my jim jams and get up to the farm. Archie gets his first ride in company for 5 months today, sort of. Friends are going on a circular route and I'm heading out when they're 1/2 an hour from home to meet them which should be in about an hour and quarter so I'd bettter get my arse in gear. Haven't taken him out in company since he's been back in work as don't want to wind him up too much. Weather is ych-y-fi though really grey and miserable. Quite fancy a day in front of the fire, might bring my tack home to clean. It's gone all mouldy from not being used!
 
morning all, just filled my tummy with a baon, sausage and black pudding bap
smirk.gif


Weather is dull, damp and mild here, spose to be brightening up later so will go and take stars rug off
smile.gif

Only one more day and I've a whole week off, so make the most of the weekend peeps
grin.gif
 
Morning all, I am feeling as rough as a badgers bum this morning
frown.gif

Had a nice lie in and just polished off a bacon buttie
smile.gif

Going into town in a few hours to buy a birthday present for my brother and then to the tack shop although I am only going for a couple of wormers no doubt I will come out with a lot more
blush.gif
Hopefully I will find out when my saddle is going to arrive considering it has been 3 months and they told me 2 weeks
mad.gif
Then I will fail at attempting to catch the pony and resort to my OH catching him (me and the grey one don't get on at all) I will then worm them and the grey one will hate me even more. Brilliant!
 
morning
smile.gif


well we're in one piece
smile.gif

she wasnt amused makes you wonder if it's worth the effort
frown.gif
considering she is supposed to be fine t clip?
confused.gif


she was cow-kicking and snorting etc OH was like omg!!
grin.gif


she pulled away from me i was stood holding trimmers and stroking her with oter hand, so i left them on and then moved closer to her again and calmed down and stopped cow-kicking and start mouthing so i left it at that.

do you think that was right thing?? this took about 10 min if that
smile.gif


is there hope for her? i feel like im being mean but she did get lots of treats and pats etc
smile.gif
 
I am so jealous by all the tasty things you lot are having for breakfast! We have no food in whatsoever even the milk is off so couldnt even have a cup of tea. Had to settle for a can of chopped oranges :-( Think its time i really went food shopping today..... Black pudding sandwich mmmmmmm
 
so doesnt sound like im traumatising her
frown.gif


only prob is dont have anyone to hold her during week
frown.gif


oh well will keep trying
smile.gif


i gotta go out now so spk later
smile.gif
 
Hey all - have woken like a bear with a sore head except I don't really have a sore head. Think cabin fever has set in and I'm barking everyone's heads off - that being hubby, pooch and pooster!

Can't believe I have to stay inside until my results incase it is pig flu - I want to go out!!!! Grrrr!!!!

Anyway, promise not to bite anyone's heads off here - well unless you are you know who!!!

X
 
Bah - how poo for you S_V!!
mad.gif
When will you hear?
confused.gif


I am just waiting for sister and neices to arrive so we can go and check out this eventer trial. It sj in outside school and then into indoor school to do X country fences - have you ever done one?
confused.gif
Thought it would be a good thing for neice to do over the winter to get in the swing of eventing before next year - what do you think?
confused.gif
grin.gif
You are now the Sweet FA eventing guru.......

What a pitiful breakfast
frown.gif
go out and buy lot of tasty food!
 
Will hear Monday or Tuesday!

BE do arena events whch are similiar, you ride a round of SJ onto XC - defo good to get the season started and for newbies horse and/or rider to get a look at some fences and how to ride them in a more controlled environment so thumbs up from me
smile.gif
 
No neds!
frown.gif
I'd be too worried anyway as my stables are at my mumand dad's and there is always loads of people in and out adn I'd hate if it turned out I did have the pig flu and anyone caught it - too much of a worry wart for that on my conscience!
crazy.gif
 
Thank you for the thoughts yesterday
smile.gif
. Always welcome to send a text - the noise thing is switched off, so a text comes through but I don't get buzzed at lol.

Ah, lift has arrived. Off to Eland Lodge we go
grin.gif
 
Morning!

Hope the weather is better than here for everyone else, though it might have just stopped ...need to venture out as chickens need cleaning out today. Hope you get the job Mrs M!

I am (supposed to be) finishing bookwork, my most favourite job of all.....shortly to dump pile and file at bookkeeper's to complete VAT return for me.

Then daughter and I will head off to the supermarket to find her something else to eat. Honestly she's eaten everything left that's edible in this house, hope she's not going to have another growth spurt as her age 13 school trousers (she was only 10 in June) will be round her ankles by Christmas and poor little No 1 LGW will look rather silly underneath her, this is a month ago:

HAhahha Slinky, she's her own plague of locusts. As well as breakfast (waffles) she's already eaten 2 bags of Wotsits a huge chunk of cheese, half a pack of biscuits, 3 apples a plum and a kiwi fruit, and is currently tucking into a pepperoni pizza and cucumber slices for lunch. Cupboard now bare!

S_V I blame her Dad he's 6ft 3 and she's slim like him not chubby like me, despite all she eats. We really need to go 14.2 pony shopping before her feet touch the ground - if she jumps higher than 2ft 3 in the photo it can be her feet rather than the pony's that touch the poles (same size as mine so she's always using my boots and shoes)
