10th July 2013

Nothing out of the ordinary happened this morning, the horses are all going nicely in the school, as to be expected some are more forward than others. Charlie was here this afternoon with a member of our syndicate that can't make the parade of horses on Sunday.

Gillies Transport were in to collect Robert Robinson's Flemensfirth ex Loxhill Lady, Robert has called to say the horse has arrived back in Scotland and he's very pleased with him. He will now consider taking him to the Tattersalls August Sale. Someone will end up with a very nice horse.

The children and Sophie had a lovely time camping last night, so much so they are staying out for another evening. I am off to join them for a camp fire supper before retuning to the comfort of our home. There are many advantages to being busy, one of which I don't have to sleep under canvas on a mat!

I noticed the score in The Ashes earlier today and it looks as if we've been a bit poor with bat in hand.
