A certain idiot has successfully managed to get one or even two front legs stuck in the electric fence (not on) three mornings’ in a row when outside in the field (one day off for snow).

Every time a coconut.

**** sigh, Iacs ****

So, after discussion with Daisy, I did what I didn’t want to have to do. I went outside and set up the electric fence to actually work where I wanted it to, and not short out on the bits that have blown away in the winter gales.

That piece (that Newt is considering) is deliberately tied off is so the Shetland ponies’ field is not attached to the energiser.  At the moment, they don’t need it but the night is young and I can always put it back, if required.

Meamwhile, Kolka was running around like a wild thing possessed.  I have no idea why.  She just took off and started galloping everywhere.

 

The others watched on utterly bemused at such ridiculous and unnecessary effort.

… especially during winter.  Is she mad?

But honestly it was Iacs I was talking to about his heinous behaviour. Seriously, the grass is not even greener the other side.  It really isn’t because it is just track and nothing exists there.

This lot can vouch for that.  They were intrigued and hopeful I was going to bring them chocolate cake – not a chance.

The fence the whole way around the field is now zapping fiercely and hopefully Iacs will get the message or get his legs stuck again and break the whole thing.  I am taking bets.

And nope, absolutely no chocolate cake. Go away you lot.  I’m bored of horses and ponies.

Edited to say I’ve just been out last thing before the light goes, and Iacs is standing equidistant away from every fence. Hah!
