Morning, it is absolutely chucking down at this moment and I'm hoping it will ease off for the walk to work.
Didn't sleep to well either, so wished last night was a dream

Hope you all have a lovely day

Rainy on and off here, chucked it down last night though

Am trying to figure out where to readvertise horse after the spectacular timewaster episode (why do I always seem to attract idiots?

)

Also need to try and persuade boss to give me Tuesday off so that I can go watch the futurity - the girl who bought my yearling is taking her along so I'd like to go see her.

Other than that, got loads of work to do......

Hope you all have a good day

Ooh scotsmare that'll be nice! How's your yearling getting on - well I take it?

And its sunny again here , highs of 23 expected with some patchy rain later. Thank god!

before getting my @rse into gear to do some kind of work......

SM - would be lovely if you could see your baby girl - assume she is getting along ok? Good luck with readvertising again (I assume the vets didn't really find anyting in her work up and she is still be backed?) and how did your interview go?
confused.gif


DL - gorillas.....hee hee!!!

Baby girl is getting along famously - has had some good placings at county level since I sold her so am looking forward to seeing how she's grown
smile.gif


Vets found nothing of any consequence in the older one so I turned her away to let her chill out for a bit. Meant to hear from someone who wants to see her later today but we'll see - I may just end up keeping her
blush.gif


Interview was a nightmare
grin.gif
wanted me to double my hours for an extra £4k a year - obviously I wasn't that keen.....

How are the mud monsters today??
 
Hi, I'm been watching your posts, thought I might provide some North East perspective if no-one minds? It's rainy here as usual, the weather can't seem to decide if it wants to be nice or horrible, which over the past few weeks has meant emergency trips to the yard to bring my arab in and bed her down for the night instead of leaving her out. Luckily it's warm this morning so she's fine but it's threatening to start a storm. Fingers crossed it stays ok as I'm planning on a long ride tonight.
 
Glad all are safe and where they are meant to be!!

Tell the police your suspicions, you could be wrong, but, you could be right!!

Off now, see you all a bit later

Hi JosieSmith

- feel free to join in the chaos!! We definately need NE input
e035.gif
- we are sadly lacking in that part of the world.....

FWIW its trying to decide whether or not to rain here - will probably piddle down just before I get home so the neds are wet in time for riding......
crazy.gif

Yeah that usually happens here too. I think I can be a bit over the top with putting rugs on though, I'm a big softie when it comes to putting her out without one on just in case it rains, but then when I turn her out and she goes off galloping across the field I'm glad I didn't cos then I'd worry about her getting a leg trapped, getting a strap stuck in the fence... I'm just a worry wart!
 
I wish I could be like that but a couple of weeks ago I left her out when it was chucking down and when I went up to get her she was shivering and wouldn't come in cos it was raining so hard and she'd have to turn into it to come in. I had to put her fleece rug on under her stable jacket to try and dry her off, I'm very lucky she didn't have a cold the next day. So now I feel guilty every time it rains and she's out, though if I'm at work there's not a lot I can do if it starts raining. I only have her on part loan at the moment but I'm starting full loan with a view to buy from September so I'm a bit nervous as I've never owned before and I'm wary as to how I'll cope with the early mornings and the time taken up every day but I'm sure it'll be very rewarding, and a few of the DIY liveries offer to help so they'll do a morning and I'll do a morning etc so it's not all hard work
 
It's sunny here for the moment, so I'm going to go potter about the lanes with the pony...also got poo-picking to do, bleh...still, I hope the weather lasts more than five minutes this time!

I'm glad they were going to visit, at least if it's only for a chat it shows that they are taking it seriously!

Wait patiently, I hope that this has made them think twice about any ideas they may have had!!

Let us know what happens
grin.gif
 
No problem, I understand, I wouldn't be waiting patiently if I thought someone was nicking my horses either!!!!

Evening all
smile.gif

Been and checked horses all 12 legs are still there

One of our yard girls has offered her horse for my daughter to help exercise, as she has a young child and doesn't have the time to ride him often and previous friend who did ride him has had her boy broken in so is riding him all the time now
smile.gif

Keeps my daughter off my back for now for her own horse

I'm in between cooking tea and bri waxing my kitchen doors so will notibly be on a high soon
