It was gorgeous today, wasn't it? I took Junior Horse for a long wander around the hill (no ladies to be found, but there was a group of about the right number two hills further out than we got) and to see how he felt about crossing water. Absolutely fine, as it turned out.
I also took him to see the digger and the dumper truck and he seemed fine with them as well, so if we ever meet one out hacking hopefully he won't turn himself inside out. He's such a dude, I love him to bits.
Nibbles isn't speaking to me today after I took her over the road into the pens, got Mr F to hold her against the boards and gave her a quick pedicure on the dodgy foot - the toe had got too long, so she wasn't walking on it properly which just meant it got longer. More spray on it as well and hopefully that will be the end of it. I was worried I was going to find shelly hoof (which is where mud gets in between the foot and the hoof wall, pushing the hoof wall outwards, a bit like a big wodge of dirt getting stuck under a fingernail) but she has really good tight feet at the moment, so fingers crossed.
