Decisions, decisions so I went and took photographs of the ancient Icelandic horses.

The cat is in White Panther mode.

Be afraid, be very, very afraid.

Found these two family photos of Michael Faraday.  I am trying to find out more.  If you can help, please give me a DM.  Many thanks.

To town to buy micronised linseed for the old ponies and every known cat food for our cat who has become bored of food.

One of my Icelandic horses ran away today, but she came home when she realised she was on her own!

Weather vile. Ponies and sheep all inside.  Icelandic horses prefer to stay outside.   Dog refused to go on a walk!

A slight lull in Storm Eowyn this morning and I managed to get out to the Icelandic horses to give them their breakfast buckets. I spent the rest of the morning taking photos of the cat!

Storm Eowyn has passed and everyone is alright and happy to be outside again.  All except the old Shetland ladies who enjoyed their 24/7 waitress service.  The Shetland boys trashed the place.

To the vet with Tiddles and Waffle, Shetland ponies, to have blood taken for tests.  I thought it might be a tad cheaper for us to go to them.

Skippy broke down.
I have a lot on my plate.
The old Shetland pony mares are my new creepy neighbours.

Took White Panther to the vet  (aka Monster) as he's going off food which is a huge worry and not like him.

Horrible weather here in Shetland today so everyone fed what they need to get through it.

Why do my Icelandic horses feel the need to stand up to their fetlocks in a bog?
