It was such a horrid night, windy with heavy rain, and this morning it continued with heavy showers and a mean grey sky. I had no intention of doing anything with the horses in that. so had another jambette session with Rem, and a bridle session with Bonbon, all nice and cosy inside the barn.
Remy's understanding is improving and today we progressed to asking for the leg raise followed by a step forward. He offered me more lift today, not through anything I was doing,but perhaps because he's decided it's a good game. :-)
A couple of scrawny dead trees at the bottom of the chook run finally gave up the ghost in the night, so we spent the afternoon, between showers, trying to clear them away and mend the fence. Not very enjoyable, but at least we've got a few weeks worth of firewood to add to our store.

It sounds better than sitting inside all day. Fresh air, if a little damp, is so missed here. We are on our fifth winter "spare the air" day in a row. (That's when the particulate/pollution level is so high that they ask people not to drive unless necessary and fine anyone who burns a wood fire.)
It was a pretty awful night wasn't it...roll on summer I say LOL. x
Oh ER, that sounds awful, we're lucky here I think the air quality is relatively good. There is always a smell of woodsmoke in winter though, not sure if that counts as pollution ;-0
Linda, wasn't it awful! It says we're on an orange warning here.
