Thank you yes. I am functionally better about 95%.
Yesterday i drove about 200 miles including 3 hours of intensive one to one trailer training and then took pony out in the evening.
Somewhat jaded today but loads to do again.

The trailer trainer was excellent but driving a brand new disco with a vid camera on board could not line up the tow hitch with the trailer. Took about 17 goes.
Also learnt to drive an automatic which i find hard.

Another madly busy day. DD was off all day playing with dogs and her mate in a haystack. Scrapped the old car in the end. Then went on our maiden fully loaded voyage in the trailer. Well eventually. After 123 attempts to get pony in the trailer. 123. Once you have started though you have to win. Drove half a mile and half an hour late to where I had booked a school. Had a little mini lesson and it only took three goes to load coming back.

I have visions of you with a portable blackboard chalking up each attempt :rotfl:

DD counted!

i'm grateful to have found you. Glad you found a suitable pony. Ouch to the price of tack.

How have you settled in to your new kitchen?

Alchemilla

Oh Pavlovs yoohoo!
We have settled in rather too much. Muddy dog sticky fingerprints...now cleaning tack in there.
How are you?

I am sitting in a sea of chaos having run out of half term prior to running out of jobs.

Today I am grateful for
* DD read the lesson in church despite tantrums.
* She didnt corpse when DS repeatedly ran up to her and said BOO.
* pony loaded first time today
* DDs riding instructor thinks we did ok with choosing the pony
* Pony was good in her riding lesson.

kitchen sounds very homely . Image of little one saying boo to his sister as she tries to do the reading is tickling me :rotfl:
