What a day yesterday, 0.75 of an inch of rain in 24 hours. To say it was wet would be an understatement! Sholto's rugby was cancelled - no wonder the youth of today are so soft! We would have been running around in skins 35 years ago, how teaching has changed, not all for the better.
The planned away gallops have fallen through as the gallops are too wet and the owner obvioulsy doesn't want them destroyed. I may try and arrange something else and have my thinking cap on.
All horses had routine canters on the wood-chip this morning, I put Sam off until Wednesday as the schooling ground would have been sodden. Mondays are always more of a slog than normal as the horses are only skipped out on Sundays, on Monday the beds take some sorting.
Ralph Beckett sent his lorry for 3 more yearlings this morning, it will be back tomorrow for the last 3.
