We worked 2 unnamed 4 year olds on the grass, one by Apple Tree the other Robin Des Champs. Sam jumped At work Blue and an unnamed 4 year old by Flemensfirth in the school. The others had quiet canters on the wood-chip.
It has been a long day, the phone calls I had planned to make won't be made today. Most of the months paper work has been done. Pat my bookkeeper will be here tomorrow to pay all the suppliers, do the wages and enter everything into the computer - a painful task!
Chiquilline has been entered for Ludlow next week, we need it to dry out a bit, reading the latest going report I doubt they'll race.
2 weeks ago Sophie had a new car - to us anyway, 90,000 miles on the clock. Last week she ran into the back of someone and today someone ran into the back of her. It will now have to spend a couple of days in dock to be patched up.
