There were 3 piquets in a row broken into several pieces in our paddocks this morning. Thankfully they were not fencing off the paddock the boys are currently in. When Jakies saw me replacing with new posts he thought I was about to move the horses onto a new area and was severely testing the top tape with his chest. The leccy will have to go for a while to give him a refresher course on getting zapped.

Today we have very little/no wind and not much so far in the way of rain.

Nor here, but that is no surprise at this time of year.

I hope you made it out. This is perfect weather for a lovely long hack. Unfortunately the boys and I have had to hang up our saddles and bridles, so no more sunny fly free hacks for us.

Another frosty start to the day here but sunny and no wind to make it feel cold. The hunt was busy all round us earlier, so riding out would not hve been an option.

The next few nights' temps have risen a bit on the forecast and any snow doesn't now get a mention.

Ice rain last night - making walking between the buildings a challenge with even the gravel surfaces being slippery.

We're getting a brief respite from the cold, although it's coming back over the weekend. As long as there's some sun, bring it on! @exile.....I became the proud owner of a pair of ski sticks yesterday :D Slithering down the garden will be a piece of cake from now on :lol:
