Only a few weeks until its time to come home!

With being up at Thurso for college its really hard for me to find time when i come home to fit everything in. For example horses friends and family-although horses are part of my family!!!

This weekend i was home but didn't have time to see the horses, but my Aunt filled me in on evrything the boys have been up to! I didn't realise how much i would miss them. Whiskey is still on rest but his leg seems ot be getting better .

Nimbus is just his usual self, full of beans and always raring to go when hes out on a ride!! As Nimbus is Connemara (his breed) he gets a real hairy coat in the winter and this means when he gets ridden he sweats an awful lot which is really uncomfy for him. Most horses that get worked in the winter get clipped out so that it is more comfartable for them ,then extra care is given to make sure they are kept warm when not bein exercised. Nimbus was clipped out in September but his hair doesn't take long to grow in, so he is due for another clip. I get christmas holidays on the 20th of December and iam home for two weeks, so we will be gicing nimbus another hair cut!!

Amos the oldest of our gang is keeping realy well for is age as he is 31. As Amos is older extra care is given to him, as he gets bigger feed than the other horses and warmer rugs to help him keep the weight on . He is dong realy well and i can't wait to see him when i get home.

When i come home for christmas holidays i will be ta the horses every day and riding -weather permitting!! I will have alot to catch up on, and also Frankie my own horse comes home with me for two weeks so he will also be full o beans when i take him out a ride!!
