itch

It was a sunny Sunday today. TW and Boblet came up nice and early with the Lunatic, chucked us some hay and set about shovelling muck from the top yard into a trailer. It looked very boring. After 3 or 4 loads TW wanted a rest and decided to ride me while Boblet went for a walk with the dawg.  She snuck up on me when I was nibbling and dozing and before I knew it I was tied to the stable with a bit of hay. I just snoozed.

Tack on, nice and chilled. TW said we could try and step on the road again today if we felt brave. I wasn't fussed. Before she got on by the donks she realised my stirrup had fallen off. Oops. Then when she got on the saddle slipped a bit and the stirrup fell off again. I didn't mind. So off she got and sorted me out and tried again. Then Boblet reappeared and tightened my girth again cos I'm a bit in between sizes at the moment.

Boblet said he would walk with us, so we mooched down the track nice and chilled. At the bottom TW asked him to wait for us cos we needed to go on the road a bit. Off we set. At the farm drive I thought we were turning round but TW said we could go a bit further today. When cars came past she made me stop and stroked me and made the cars go slow and all was good. We tootled a bit further to the next drive where I spied the ginger shetlands. So when the road was clear we turned round and started to tootle back. All of a sudden 3 cars started coming towards us so TW asked me to stop again while they drove past. After the first one I was bored so said cmon and off we went, back to Boblet and down the track. The Lambikins were bleddy scary though!! Boblet gave me a carrot when we got back and TW popped me back with the dudes. I made sure she gave me a good kiss too for being awesome.

 Bracky was super itchy today. TW got him in a head lock while Boblet got a headcollar and then she sprayed him with tea tree oil and gave him carrots and scratches. He did not want his rug on. He spent most of the day in the shelter hiding from the flies. When TW and Boblet came back with all the dawgs he was hiding and TW tried to convince him to have a rug on. He ran off and ran round the field rolling and looking annoyed at midges. TW was sad so me and Lyra made her scratch us lots to distract her.
