The foal is lovely!

I must admit Ive never heard of them having Guiness either.

The wife has been learning to drive our Mini Shetland so has recently bought a little cart for him to pull, she is having great fun with it. And has also been helping a friend with show jumping, so getting into that a bit too.....

In fact she "had to" buy some new riding boots on the weekend!

Haha very good!

We are looking for a new horse for the yard as none of ours are currently ridable, so the wife and yard owner is off to view a racehorse tomorrow, free allegedly as he won't race!
