9th July 2013

The Derby sale horses were all ridden around the school today, all behaved beautifully and will stay there for 3 or 4 weeks getting balanced and tracking up correctly. From 11.30 this morning I had a stream of people coming to see their horses or in for one thing and another. Will Humphries of Dobson and Horrell dropped in some new feed for me to try and a chat. Michael and Kate Watts came to see the 3 horses they have shares in, Fruits Of Love gelding, Major Martin and a 3 year old by Milan that I bought in Ireland at the Derby sale, he toes out but he's a racehorse if I ever saw one. Charlie was then here with some pals from Australia, I failed to ask them how The Loins got on!

This afternoon was spent fiddling about in the office before evening stables. The children have all gone camping with Sophie and are having a ball.
