Chamfron Osito - Umpiring

Chamfron Osito is carving out quite a niche for himself as a very good looking umpires pony.

Keep Moving - Week 25

Sunday steps were storm hunting.  Monday we headed down to Melrose for the common ride, spotted Helen and had a lovely walk along both sides of the Tweed.  Not only did we see the horses crossing the Tweed but we saw a couple of deer too.  Thursday we went exploring with Spidey and Friday we had a very muggy stroll around Newbattle Abbey looping round the Roan's Dyke path, unfortunately best known as the site of Jodi Jones's murder...  Saturday was another muggy walk around the Musselburgh Lagoons where the poppies are out in force around the ash ponds, spotted several seals too.

Wee Updates

Spotted Quintana at the farms LEAF open Sunday, I think she needs to work on her Selfies!  Wilden True Blue (by Arrayan Numa) owned by Caroline Hughes won his first British Eventing 100 on a dressage score of 23.8 and got a mention in Horse and Hound!  Chamfron Agata de Fuego completed another 30km ride at Rammerscales. 

Keep Moving - Week 24

On Sunday we had a gentle stroll around Preston Hall which was having a LEAF open farm Sunday and also an open garden.  They seem to have rehomed our sheep and got it a couple of pals too.  Monday we had a wander round Watch Water reservoir near Longformacus, lots of wildlife, deer, lapwings, curlews, tadpoles, trout, geese in their hundreds.  And the rest of the week I made too many "it's too hot" excuses!
