4th December 2013

All the horses went on the woodchip, some will take their first steps onto the schooling ground tomorrow. The 2 babies belonging to Johnny and Liz Wills started in the lunge pen, both horses are fine and I foresee no problems with either.

Late morning I set off for another day on Johnny with the Heythrop, we had a great charge around jumped plenty some bigger things than others, one very good set of rails. Johnny is strong and I will sleep well tonight, I normally plan to pack up at 2nd horses but we stayed to the death tonight as we were having fun and Johnny has an away day a week on Saturday with the Cheshire. He will be tested up there, I haven't been up there for a good few years now but the last time I did go we jumped a fair few decent hedges.

Gerard Butler must be pretty sick, I know he's done wrong but to take a young mans livelihood away from him is pretty tough. I don't know what the answer is but I'd have thought banning him for 5 years basically finishes him.
