TW lady has lost her confidence Brack reckons and he says it's ALL MY FAULT! Frankie says that's not true and she's just being a bit lazy and this happens every year. Frank says not to worry and actually it was falling off BRACK that started all the falling off nonsense. I hope she's not really scared, we've got lots of work to do together. I like working.
Today was a nice day anyway. We had hay in the field and then hay in the stable. Yum. Then hay on the yard while I had my toosies picked and and sprayed with tea tree stuff. Next me and TW went into the school and did sme riding practise. I tried very hard t be a good boy. We did some stopping and starting. TW was pleased cos I knew when she wanted to stop cos she breathed in and sat differently. I got lots of pats. We practised changing direction and finished by doing a big circle in both directions. Just in walk. It was nice.
For the rest of the day I got to relax in my stable and munch and chat with frank. Then we went back to the field, Brack was pleased to see us! Then we had some grass. Yum.

Lovely cuddles
Today TW decided to have a slow day as the hay was making her sneeze and feel grotty. She came to the field and let us on the drive while she did sme poo picking. Then me and her had some lovely cuddles. The grass is growing abit I think but she still moved some fence posts for us but frank says the grass is crap and not to eat it.
Later on TW came back and had a funny looking man with her. We marched over for a cuddle and he gave us a stroke. Brack says he's scared of us, duno if thats true. TW moved some more fence posts. Frank said that was nice grass so we ate it.

The not so nice bits were

Cheeky monkeys
Some ponies tried to break into our field today. I think that's rude. It was proper scary. As was all the wind. And the rusting noises. And the whistling noise that the gate makes. Frank and Brack were scared too. It was ok though because TW came and we hid behind her until we were last the bad things and got to the grub. NOM.

Hmmm an adventure
Today was interesting. We ate some grass and then me and TW went to the yard. I had some hay, had a brush, TW did my tootsies ( which she says are thrushy ) and then I got on the box. Interesting!!
We didn't go far. Apparently it was the place that frankie used to live at. There were a couple of nice
people about and some lovely horses. Then off we went out with a lovely coloured mare called topaz. I think she was showing off a bit for me. Girls are so silly!!
It was interesting hacking as there were lots of bridlepaths. And fields. And sheep. And a bridge. Didn't like the bridge and got a smacked bum. Still didn't like the bridge until topaz showed me it was safe.
We did some walking, some trotting, some lovely canters although TW wouldn't let me go as fast as I wanted. At the end we even did some jumpies over a log thing in a field of sheep. Now I think TW was scared. She wanted to jump but she was scared I wouldn't do it and she would go splat. Jeez. How rude. She kept telling me to do it and then when we got close she changed her mind. I walked over it. I ran past it. I stopped on top of it. Hehehe. Finally we followed topaz and did a nice couple of lovely cantery jumps when she finally trusted me to let go of the reins abit. Fgs. More jumping needed I reckon.
When we got home I had some hay and a lovely sleep. Nice day.

A no buck splat hack
TW arrived early this morning. I think she was nervous. When she got to the field she was more grumpy as Brack and frank were stood nomming in the long grass. She did laugh a bit too. Then she went back to being nervous. I'm not sure why?
We went up to the yard and then I had some nice hay. Dnt think it was timmy hay mind. I has my hooflets picked out and was very good. TW gave me lots of praise. She put on the fly sprey and tacked me up.
When she got on I made a swift march for the grass. She let me have a munch. That was nice. Then off we went. Through the village. Down the little bridlepath. She was singing some very strange songs but if it keeps her happy hehehehe.
The bridlepah was surprisingly busy for early on a sunday morning. I wasn't keen on the dogs in the distance and a ladY jogger crept up behind us. That didn't bother me though. TW took a deep breath and said lets trot. So we trotted. No sooner was I trotting but she wanted me to walk. And then trot. And then walk. Make your mind up!! Then she said lets canter. Whheeeee! Oh trot again. She was very pleased with the canter. I think it was because I didn't kick my back legs in the air and tipple her on the floor? So we trotted some more and cantered some more. And we trotted some more and cantered sme more. Quite honestly I would have liked to canter a whole lot more but there were some scary plants about and TW said we had to be careful. It was great fun.
On the way back she jumped off and let me graze for a while and then we went to the yard where I had some more grass and posed for some pictures. Then it was time to go back to the field. Im sure it's nearly time for the hunty dogs to go out you know....I'd like a bit of that action.

How odd
I've had another week off following my little Bucky do dah last weekend. TW came to get me and frank this morning and I was a bit unsure about being caught. I'm glad I did let her catch me thou. I had a lovely treat.
Firstly, we had some hay. NOM. That was nice. Then the odd thing happened. A lady arrived . She asked TW sme questions about me. Nosey! Then I had to go out onto the street and start walking to the field. That's fine although it was windy and I didn't want to leave frank.
Then, I had to walk back to the lady. That was confusing. I didn't understand why. Then I had to turn round and trot away. Oh my days I was really confused. Then she made me turn little circles and back up which I did nicely. The lady was laughing at me, she said it looked like I didn't know that my feet were mine! But apparently I have a nice trot. TW said that's because I think walking is dull. Hehehe.
Next, me and the lady went into the stable. She did all these funny stroking things on me. Frank was well annoyed. I think he was jealous. She checked all over me to see if I was tight or sore anywhere. Nope! I'm good Ta. She was very pleased with me I reckon. Frank was disgusted. The lady said if I seem ok then I don't need to be checked for another year. Fra Nk Lauhed and said I'd be lucky. Not sure what he means. After that I went back to the field and we had some lovely grass TW says I can't go out with the bloodhounds on Sunday though. That made me sad.

Not sure what happened today
Today I was quite sleepy and slow I think. Frank and I went to the stables for a NOM and he went out for a little hack. Afterwards it was my turn. I was slow as I've not been out for two weeks and not been out in my own for a bit longer.
We went slowly down the bridlepath, I wanted to walk on the grass for a change, maybe my tootsies were sore. We went right at the bench and behind the hedge, had some lovely big trots. After a while we saw the YO and his doggies so we slowed right down and went past. There was a blue cost lady behind the hedge which made me jump abit. Through the hedge we went then TW suggested we could have a little trot on the edge of the stubble field. I didn't like that so much tbh.
Back on he bridlepath and we decided to have a nice canter. I've not cantered there before. It started off well but I'm not sure what happened next. Buck buck splat runnnnnnnnnnnn!!!!! Not sure if the doggies scared me or if something bit me or whether im a bit sore somewhere? TW ended up on the floor in a heap , I ran to the end of the bridlepath as fast Ian's I could then turned round to check she was ok. I could see she was moving so I carried on to eols field and stood grazing.
Eventually TW was feeling better I think ! She caught me up and off we set back to the staBles, we found ZM and rm on the way who wanted to check we were ok. Back at the yard, TW go back on me nice and simple and we had a little walk and trot round the boring school thing. Then it was grub time and back to Bracky in the field.

Visitors
Today I was ready to come out and play but TW said I had one more day resting. Hmmmm. Ok. We're making good progress in the great hay race , in fact we are getting a tiny bit bored of hay. So bracken told me to pee on it. Apparently that's naughty. Sorry!
Later on we had some lovely visitors from roskos family. That was lovely. I had lots of kisses and cuddles. I think I need to get some exercise soon as its or long until the next pleasure ride.

The best bed is a hay bed
I'm enjoying my week off. Not only do we have a lovely big bale of nommy hay in the field but I got to spend the night snoozing in the hay. It was like a big snuggly yummy bed. Lovely! I even found that it was possible to lie down and snooze and eat hay at the same time!! How lovely is that?

Big bale
Another relaxing day today. When TW came up we were sleeping in the bottom corner in the sun. She opened the gate and we made our way out of the field for a nice sunny picnic. Later on we had an amazing delivery ...a huge bale of hay in the field. Wow!

Am I retired?
Bracken says that we are all retired because TW is a lazy daisy. He says maybe she'll sell us all s she can just sit on her bum all day. Frankie just laughed and said Bracks a Nobber. We had lots of hay and grass today which was nice. There's been some sun and some rain. I hope I'm not going to move again, I love my friends.
