This was the view into the yard this morning...and it's been blustery snow showers off and on all day - it only settles for a very short time. It's been so wet the last few days and it's a good time to remind ourselves that February is usually the worst part of the year and is the end to the winter. Topsy started shedding the longest hairs of her winter coat on Thursday so she obviously knows that spring is only just around the corner!
All the volunteers have been off ill at different stages throughout February - I don't think we've ever had a time where everyone was off with flu, colds, and even more serious complaints in such a short period of time. Even Faye's finally succumbed to a cold - probably inevitable!
Thank you everyone for their Easyfundraising efforts over Christmas - this week the ponies received the sum of £24.52, which is a great effort...and takes our overall total raised to £284.48... thank you! Thanks also go to Jean for donating some rugs for us to sell.
We were pleased to meet Faie, Rachel and Rowan this week who came to see the ponies. We hope they'll come back to see us again!
Arthur wanted to show Peter his latest rosette! |
