Zoe here.

Yeah yeah I know we've been really lax about blogging. We've been busy doing things like eating and plodding out.

Lots of news.

My boy Nuggets friend Indy has been pts. He was younger than me but hadn't been well for a long time. Nug isn't on his own he has two girls he lives with. He's still sad as is Nugs human.

Grandfoal Kyle has always been scared of us. He wouldn't even stroke us through the fence. But no more. A few weeks ago he came with human, Grandfoal Lola and Grandfoal Amber to visit us. When he saw Grandfoals Lola and Amber cuddling Bob and I he decided we weren't so scary after all and joined in. A few days later he came with Grandfoal Lola, The Stallion and YMF to let me take him out for a wee plod. His first ever plod. I've done that for all 3 of my Grandfoals. So Grandfoal Lola gets on first. Off we set. She even took full control of me for a while. Because of this virus thing in humans the riding school has been closed. She was so pleased to get her horsey fix. They swapped over half way. Grandfoal Kyle wasn't too sure at first but before many metres had gone he was all smiles and having a great time.

  Another success methinks.

Bob wasn't happy. He wanted to take Grandfoal Lola out. But there weren't enough humans to help so he had to stay in the field. Next time Bob.

Human has been away on her holidays yet again. Nugs human looked after us. The day before she and Bob had an oops moment. Because I get more food than Bob I go in a different bit of field. Otherwise he tries to eat my dinner and that's just not on. He gets a small dinner of his own but it's still annoying having to tell him to go away all the time. So I was in the ungrazed bit of field. Bob in the grazed bit. Human comes through the gate that seperates us when Bob pushes past and knocks her to the ground. He didn't trample on her but she's still a bit battered and sore. A few bruises and injured ribs. He says he thought she was going to move to the side but she didn't do so quick enough. He didn't mean to hurt her. The following morning he was very contrite and stood very politely by the gate until human had opened it up wide enough for him to get through.

We are both still taking human out for wee plods. Bob has been very well behaved as of course have I. You didn't really need to ask did you?
