It has certainly been a busy few weeks. It was good to meet Jurjen and take him for a spin on two different horses.

A week later Byron spent an afternoon on Murph in a four horned saddle. But he has all the pictures.
My 6 year old Harry had a go on Murph and Hal. He really enjoyed himself. Horse archery next!

Hal went to a 15th century battle with me, and we basically looked pretty and ran around a bit. We watched the jousters who lumber around in straight lines failing to hit bloody large targets. Hal did very well and the gun fire and drums didn't unsettle him.

And I am enjoying riding a new horse, a hunting cob who seems really rather good if over-looked. So two horses to train this winter
It has been a special summer.
