Have a fab day off with the lads - hope the weather is decent for you all.
BTW am an NCIS fan too!0 -
I had a lovely day with the boys, the sun shone most of the time to make it a fantastic day. The Captain is well and was very pleased to see me which was nice. He was looking very smart as one of the grooms at the yard had spent quite a while grooming him. They don't have any hairy horses there, just very post warm bloods, so he's a bit of a novelty!
The stables for the Captain and Noah have been refurbished, new doors and weather-proofing. All that I need is for the ground to dry out sufficiently for fences and shelter. It will be a while yet.
