lavender

Today I was mostly in a jumpy mood. When TW arrived at the yard ( with Boblet and the doglets) I was stood a bit wonky which made her worry a tad but my tummy feels fine. Hay nomming commenced while TW tried to motivate herself to have a tidy up. Mr Boblet is much better at tidying up in some ways as he is efficient. The trouble is he doesn't seem to understand the way TW wants things to be which is based on what she thinks is best for us. I heard her mutter a few bad words under her breathe which made me chuckle. Mr Boblet was mostly very nice to me and we had some chats and scratches when he thought TW wasn't looking. That made her chuckle.

Anyhoo, today was trimming day. Made slightly more challenging by the fact the Pig kept licking the trimmer ladies face and trying to eat bits of hoofy-peg from underneath us, sometimes even before it was off our feet!! Fecking wierdo.

Dilly was a good girl, Jez was her usual fidgety self. Mikka was a good girl with her stiff hind legs and then Bee said he wanted a trim but got a bit bored after two legs so needed bribing to stay. Then it was my turn. I was a bit stiff and spooky looky so TW sprayed me some lavender spray to help me relax. It sort of worked until Mr Boblet started carrying buckets around and Jez followed him as she thought they were full of food. TW assured me it was just rubble in the buckets but I had to keep stopping to check.

After me, Misty was the best behaved and then Lyra had some practice picking her tootsies up. Phew!! Even after all that work there was still a wee bit of hay left so that was a relief. The wind really started blowing a gale and the rain was threatening so TW had a quick cuppa and tootled off and I went off for a snooze. Boblet has done some nice dry stone walling today.
