    Happy horse snogs with The Captain and Noah. (Assuming that poor Noah gets a look in LOL)

    Noah got a look in, only because they were stabled due to the awful weather. Noah is very sweet. It's really the first time I've had a chance to get to know him without the Captain barging in.

    I could only stay for a short while with the boys. The weather was, and still is, truly terribly. Both the boys were stabled to keep them warm and dry. The Captain is not a youngster anymore and gets very stiff in his legs if he gets cold and wet. Come to that, Noah is not exactly a spring chicken either, he's 27!

    A nightmare journey home, luckily I'd made a chilli in the slow cooker, micro-bombed some frozen rice and had a very yummy dinner. I always put some 85% chocolate in the chilli, it really adds a depth to it. Partnered with a glass of red wine an almost perfect meal.

    Other than fuel it's been a day of not spending (we don't mention the carrots and rugs I took with me :o Christmas presents you know :D

    I have a very long day tomorrow, I'll be starting at six and finishing at six. I'm catering for a Christmas party of 25. Can't say I'm looking forward to it. I just hope they realise that the place will close at five no matter how much they've had to drink.
