Ponies are now down at Paula's. Beryl phoned and said that the weather forecast for tomorrow was not good. Snow level is forecast to be way down and would likely close the road out, if not from the snow, then from ice. So the decision was made to head off asap.
So Bridgie is now 'grumping' in the loose box (with plenty hay of course) and Isla is in with Valentine (aka Rose Moon), as Paula wasn't home.
Isla took some persuading to cross the creek but she finally plucked up the courage and splashed across. There has been heaps and heaps of rain the last couple of days so the creek is a little higher than 'normal'. I don't think Isla has ever had to cross a creek before in her life so she was a pretty 'brave' pony about it all. Very sensible, just needed time to 'think'.
Last seen, Isla and Valentine together were fooling about very happily, while the people next door's horse (looks like a dizzy TB) was going right off. Being Connemaras, I & V really were not impressed with the shenanigans going on next door.....

Well this was nothing more than a boring travel diary of my trip to the UK, that friends may - or may not be - bothered to read :) but now has morphed into an ordinary blog - I guess
