A cold but dry morning and I gave everyone their breakfast wishing it would be warmer.

I managed to hide away Vitamin and her bucket so she could eat in peace….

…. but failed with Fivla. She stuck out like a sore thumb because she wouldn’t go into the little sheep-pen with Vitamin (she felt crowded and mildly hysterical).

I also tucked Kolka around another corner to try and keep her from marauding everyone else.  She always eats very quickly and then goes on the rampage.

Over the day, it got increasingly colder and I collared Mandy, who came over to play flute duets, to help me put on rugs again.  We are all very fed up with winter.  These days, it is the gift that just keeps on giving.

So we started with Tiddles who offered to put on his own rug and I put out the haynets too.

I gave the Shetland ponies an extra haynet as the grass isn’t growing in these low temperatures.  No one minded or said no thank you.

Then we went out to the other field and I caught, Mandy held, and I put on everyone’s rugs.  This lot are going to need it – although there is no snow forecast (I pray), but it is going to be very cold over the next few days.

Oh yes, and I did a few more hairstyles to cheer myself up.

I think you will agree that Waffle suits his lucious locks.

But, hold the phone, Ted looks positively regal.  It could not be better (Mum would’ve loved this).

Anyway, back to moaning about the weather. It’s my new hobby or as those influencers are always saying “it is my new obssession!”  (shudder).
