No runners but we don’t mind the quiet period – many of our horses are having their break now while the ground is bottomless, and its going to get busy again shortly with plenty entered for the weekend and the following week including Kings Grey who had a tentative entry at Wetherby today for Saturday. For once our trauma this weekend was fish related, not horse – having finally managed to clean and move our huge tank from Castleton – and fish, in several stages, we finally managed to get it all set up with fish in it, and all in one piece tonight at Green Oaks – only to crack the tank while putting the lid on. After several gallons had cascaded all over our floor, we managed to keep the fish in below the huge crack and it will hopefully remain intact below this line tonight!
My computer had lost internet connection for a few days so my second schooling video could not upload but its (now fixed) and back on, and will be posted tomorrow morning. I have also emailed out a letter to all Owners, so if you haven’t received this please do let me know on pippakirby@icloud.com – it can also be read on our Private Page which is password protected.
We though you might like to see some PKR photos from the past…
