Congratulations to Mollie…

..because she passed her BHS Stage 1 exams last week. She got the results yesterday. Whoop, whoop!

We also are patting ourselves on the back because we finished off the dairy today and tonight have Sally, Diamond, Jess, Guiness and Big Misty in the dairy for the night. That means the other pens are less busy.

And Hamish and my training of Heidi is coming on. We tried Heidi joining in the Wednesday 5.30 lesson for ten minutes. She was good but a bit in awe at the other ponies in the lesson and didn’t listen to Hamish’s legs much. So today he rode her again but just with me in the arena with a lungeing whip and used it to make Heidi move off the leg. She was fabulous and really forward going.

Finally, Princess Tiger Lilly had a bath and a blow-dry today. After spending a load of time playing in the mud we needed to get her clean, so it was into the bath and shampoo and conditioner followed by the hair dryer on her. She is now fluffy and clean.
