Yesterday evening was “Thelery Thursday”.  I had come back from Turriefield (the community growing project where I volunteer) with a massive bin-bag full of unwanted celery leaves for the ponies.

So I rattled my bin-bag and called them up ……

And they didn’t need asking twice.  Celery is always a huge hit with the ponies and is the only treat they are allowed.  I only buy it if it is under 50p so they haven’t had it recently – sorry.

The ponies shovelled it all in trying to get as much as possible in one mouthful.

I left them chewing happily away.

The noise of munching celery leaves was fairly loud too.

And later, when I went back, there was no trace of a single leaf anywhere.  Not one.  All gone, thank you very much.
