We have a Weather Cat. He goes outside when it's raining so he can come back in to tell us it is raining!

Horses and ponies seem to be more settled into the winter routine now.  Filthy but happy.

Not going to lie, I am really not feeling Christmassy or very happy at the moment.  Struggling today

Getting everything ready for Christmas family and friend to arrive on Thursday.  Vet came to take blood from the ponies. We talked about Storm.

Icelandic horses have the best system for keeping dry and warm during the wettest weather.

It is vile out there but Shetland ponies are very tough.  I am less so.

The sheep stayed indoors.  Their choice.
