mad dogs and englishmen (women)

go out in the midday sun.....

ride out round the 20 acre with Riemah, who coincidentally was setting off  also - just as well, as he'd blocked again, but once we got going he was fine, and i had to keep stroking the shoulder with my long whip to keep the flies off! and so overgrown!  at one point we were riding through belly high stuff....a bare bit for the feet, but that's about all that could be said for the track through the field

then trotted back along the back drive without incident whilst Riemah went off to do something faster in another field...

but my it was hot!

looking forward to hearing Gaynor's report tomorrow...
