The Swallows have Flown and Pippa does the Showgirl Tour at Redlands….

Hello all, sorry the blog is a bit late this week, had to sit up and watch Pippa prancing round in her feathers last night…. saucy little minx.  She had been to the end of season show at 7Oaks and cleaned up in the show hunter classes, not only that, but she had won the championship too!  I say well done to her, but blimey, she really does go on!  Flippin, 2am this morning before she shut up, even Tilly made her excuses and went to get her coco whilst she was ranting on, Percy couldn’t even entertain her…..  It wasn’t such a happy day for my Aunty Nic Nac and if I ever see that Ginger Ninja again he will get a right slap.  Apparently Pip is off clubbing again this week, don’t know where she gets the energy from.

Talking of Percy, he spent all night gazing at Chloe, they had been out together up to the woods, he had got a bit over excited and strutted his stuff a bit but after climbing up that hill all Chloe wanted was a cab to take her home again, she was the only one this morning who couldn’t get excited about our new fields, even Ruby doing handstands all round the paddock couldn’t raise a smile.

3 of them had the vet today, Percy and Tilly for their yearly jabs and poor old Boysi has had an infection in his leg so had to have a check up, apparently he is going to have an xray, but get this, they are bringing the equipment to the yard! Marvellous what they can do these days, I remember my grandad in Ireland telling me of the days out he would have having xrays and now they bring it all to you! Wicked! We can all watch.

Well, me, Bert, Percy and Tilly are getting ready for a  big day out on Sunday, yes, Percy is going eventing, I think my mum has completely lost it, lets hope she gets me round before she has to get on him, he has so much self preservation that he doesn’t give a stuff about his passenger.  It will all end in tears…… I’m looking forward to another event and Bert and Tilly are looking forward to getting out too.  Hope mum packs a picnic.  Chloe and Rubes are out this weekend too, but I get the feeling that they think eventing is far too energetic and the show jumping is much classier than galloping round a muddy field. They are probably right…..

Brandy has had a weekend off, her mum has been up to see an old friend of ours, Delilah, she is looking good actually and you know what they say about the older woman!  I wouldn’t mind giving her a whizz round my paddock I can tell you!

Welll, the sad news of the week is the swallows have gone, and we all know what that means, clippers and rugs….. which means another visit from the vet and some drugs…. Super!                                             

Dear old Tom is havin a rough time in the wind and the rain, but Doo Doo has scouted Milletts for him and has bought him a new outfit, hope it arrives in time for the rain and more importantly that she got the right size for him.

Gorgeous, don’t you think?  Although not sure the colour suits but who would give a stuff whilst it blows a hooley. 

Well, heres to another week and hope its a good one for you all. Lol B xx
