I spy

Dear Frank

I saw you watching me today. And I saw you watching TW. And I saw TW watching you watching me. And she was probably watching me watching you too. In fact, I don't think anyone else does as much watching as me and you at the moment (the girls certainly aren't fussed and we know Brack coudnt care less).

Anyhoo, you spying on me has resulted in me having to be uber good today. So I let TW rub my tummy all over on both sides ( even though it had been raining) and I also let her clean my sheath in the field. I hope we can be tag team chums again soon cos this being good will wear thin soon I'm sure. But until then, I will be watching you.

Dear TW

I'm really sorry I grew big and made you scared about my height. I'm really sorry I have bucked you off a few times and maybe really hurt you (and that one time rear thing). And I'm sorry that my tummy has been poorly and I get stressed and worried alot.

Please can we get back on track though soon? We used to do so good at the pleasure rides and stuff, we were super fit and fast and were doing good, Please can we start again? I'd really apprciate it and I promise to be good.

Love

Tommy

PS I've started getting myself fit by racing and chasing Frankie to show off to Jezey so that's a good start I reckon!

sorry

Dear TW

I'm really sorry that none of the herd are talking to you at the moment, I reckon it's Franklyn's fault. It most certainly has nowt to do with me. Can you sort these bleddy flies out please? They are disgusting. Fortunately they seem to like the others more than me, maybe it looks like they like the lammi ones best, (Misty, Polly, Frank) - get your worrying head round that one.

Still no sign of any riding hey? Not sure we will manage any 20 milers this year? AGAIN!! FFS!!

Buck your ideas up,

TB Squire

Cool

Dear TW

It's cooling down, we need to start working again now. Frank is being wierd, he runs away from me all the time but I think he is even more scared of Lyra. I'm letting him in my shelter and everything but he still isn't sure he wants to be friends yet. Wierdo. I don't care if he likes hanging round with the other girls. Jezey will not be friends with him at all yet though. LOL. She's worried that everyone will be sad when he leaves again.

I reckon we should start making some nice plans for us ,

Love

Tommy

hmmmm

Dear TW

Ok, so its nice seeing Franklyn Bean really, him and Brack are loving it. It's nice to see him so happy.  The girls aren't massively fussed about him either, he seems scared of Lyra which is wierd. I don't mind him chatting to the ginges as tbh they can be hard work so it's less stress for me.

I think we need to make some plans together though cos we've been slacking in all this bleddy heat. I'm lucky I guess as the flies prefer the others to me.

Maybe we can be friends again

Tommy

WTF

Dear TW

Are you absolutely frikking kidding me?

For the last 4 years I have asked you to get Frankie back. You know how upset and stressed it made me when he went away and how it made my tummy bad. You also know how I've hated having to be head of a herd but I've worked really hard at it (even though it's a big herd full of complicated ladies) even though it made me worry all the time.

Finally in the last couple of weeks I have been feeling good and settled and happy. And then you go and bring the Bean back. WTF? My head is mashed man!! I want to be buds with him again but I need to make sure he knows I'm boss. And quite frankly (pardon the pun) I have not forgotten how shit he was to me when I first arrived from Ireland and he bit that chunk out of my ear. So yes, I have chased him a bit and booted his ass but I know he isn't bothered and that is annoying. And yes I am hugely pissed off with you so you can shove your extra strong mints and cuddles cos I ain't interested.

Yours

Mr Squire

PS please don't send me away

Flies

Since I posted last the weather has been fecking hot. And I've been in hospital and had 2 teeth out and had loads of follow up appointments which meant loads of drugs and putty in my mouth. Did I say it's been hot?

Jezey started having some lessons at the field so obviously I got my oar in and said I wanted a crack too. Today I had my second one and I was a most fabulous boy and TW was super happy. My tummy is absolutely bob on at the moment and we reckon maybe its cos the weather has been so dry. Feck knows. 

Afte rmy lesson bleddy Lyra had a groundwork lesson and she was good too. Too much fecking competition to be numero uno in these parts.

And the bleddy horse flies are eating us all alive.
