Speak to someone who doesn't have horses and they're incredulous we are all up so early. 5:30 turn out..at the yard at 5am. Mucked out and back home getting showered for work by 6am. Madness!
I was turning out at 6am during the summer but have slowly made it later and later til it's now between 7.30-8am because of the dark mornings and miserable weather - I think the horses appreciate it more!
