La France commence à affronter une tempête particulièrement violente - tonight according to the meteo. I hate storms, especially lightning, which, since we arrived in France has fried my modem twice. Happily lightning isn't forecast, but I'm not looking forward to the very strong winds and rain!!
It wasn't too bad this morning, fairly bright but with a strong blustery wind. I did some in-hand stretching and flexing exercises with Remy inside and then took Anky outside to do the same. She's the perfect horse to start my in-hand work with, she's patient, and, most importantly, very forgiving. When I do anything with her it makes me want to ride her even more, I miss it. I'm afraid to even think it in case she throws herself to the floor and starts rolling around in agony. I'm going to try my best to do more with her in-hand and on the lunge, if I can get her fitter I may be able to start riding her again.
We've brought the trailer back round onto the yard so we can recommence our trailer training, but by the time it came to bringing them in the weather was way too bad to do anything constructive. Just as I was bringing Bonbon out through the field gate the lid blew off one of our water containers and scared her half to death, but she was such a good girl and stood (relatively) calmly with me until it had stopped blowing around the yard.
Roll on Spring!!!
