Meet the horses

OK, so enough about me, let me introduce you to my horses.

First off we have "Rock Steady Teddy" AKA Teddy AKA The Evil Basteward AKA You Little Shit. Teddy is a 15.1hh heavy weight Irish Cob with attitude. He would rather eat you than say hello but sometimes can be ever so sweet. He doesn't like strangers. He's very terrotorial and the first time you meet him you have to be on your guard.

Secondly we have "Wernderris Lala" AKA Lilly. Lilly is the sweetest pony you will ever meet. 99% of the time she is as good as gold and really well behaved (until she eats grass that is!). She's 12.2hh and a Welsh Section C and is soooo pretty. I don't ride her (well at 14 odd stone I'd squish her!). She is my daugther's first ridden pony and I don't know what I'd do without her. I'm already making plans for her when the daugther reaches 12 and is out of the 12.2hh classes. She's staying with me that's for sure.

Thirdly we have my old faithful "Bottle" AKA "Bottle", yes, just Bottle. Named because apparently his dad was called Cork (which incidentally was Teddy's original name). Bottle is 18 now, he's been plagued with bad leg problems all his life from doing too much too soon as a baby. When you think we bought him as a 6 year old, he'd already got BSJA money on his card and had been to nearly every event I had been too with an old horse of mine for the previous 2 years, that's a lot for a baby, especially a Shire X TB (with more Shire in him) and on Guernsey's hard ground. He's semi-retired now, just pops out maybe once a week for a splash in the sea.

I will upload photo's later.

I will also dedicate a seperate blog for each horse individually later.... (oh I bet you can't wait!)
