Don't mention the weather..........

What is it with putting pen to paper??? I just have to mention the weather and it all goes to pot. Well, not completely to pot, but overcast with a chilly wind today and not the warmth that I'd expected. I know we're only in february, but my head's already clicked over into spring - probably a big mistake.
It was a chasse day today and they were at the bottom of the neighbouring field, dogs howling and horns hooting. A lone dog wandered across our land, nose dutifully to the ground, blissfully unaware that she was going in completely the wrong direction. It's nearing the end of the chasse season, so I'm hoping that this will be the last time we see them.
We'd brought the horses in early and they were restless in their stables. I took the opportunity to bring Bonbon into the barn for a grooming session. She was quite alert to the noises, but soon settled and relaxed. They're starting to moult, so that's a good sign.
