so far, not so good an easter

on the horse front.

yesterday was wet - and gaynor's car broke down

today - the plan was for a hack out, but gaynor's child care fell through - she had kindly mucked out for me this morning!  so i was well pleased about that....

got monf in, good grooming, tacked up, on

he was distracted, when in the arena, by the fishermen (the local angling club has the rights on the River Wear as it runs through the land, and the car park is just outside the arena - fishing rods and nets wafting about) so i got off to do some in hand work (regretted later, when shoulder started hurting! but that's another matter)

going ok, when phone rang - police!  I had to drive up to mothers. so monf got chucked into his stable (happily all done!) and go off.... She was ok, if very upset - people had thought she was wandering from the local care home, rather than trying to get the bus into Newcastle, and called the police! so the end result was she missed what she was going to Newcastle for, and i had to go over and calm the situation

she's fine.

  1. Oh, dear. Well, not the worst of days since it all worked out OK, but not the best, either.

    Wishing you a better day tomorrow along with some sunshine.
