Girl Talk

My arrival at the riding school caused quite a stir!  

The volunteer grooms and pony club girls were chatting about me all night on the social networks - some of it wasn't very nice, - but my 'Forever-Mummy', Sam, loved me right from the start.

"B: sorry but that is one ugly pony

Sam: Aww he is lovely bless x

J:  aww bless him is that at the stables? x

B:  no he’s really not xxx

J:  don’t be horrible to the pony B! :) x

Sam:  He is on trial atm, if he is good then yes, but if not, then no. He is a Welsh x Arab but really chilled out x

S:  I think he is really cute. X x

Sam:  Yea me too, he’s bout 12.2hh I think xx

B:  yeah it’s a new one called Ben arrives out of the blue on Saturday I really don't like him. I mean I know Phoebie isn’t the chunkiest of horses but even so that thing is taking it to the extremes

J:  I haven’t met him but he seems cute :) xx

Sam:  Why not B? He is lovely, he gives me hugs when I muck him out. But he does have that horrible scar on his neck. He got bitten by a horse where he came from and he has a huge dip/dent in the top of his neck, it looks and feels horrible x

S:  But that will change with feed n work. X

J:  ahhh poor boy! and B don’t insult little Ben!;) xx

B:  hahaha not insulting IT, it’s just not my cuppa tea

Sam:  Yea B lmao!!! Na he’s cool, x

S:  He just needs some love. X x

J:  yeah x

Sam:  Yea bless him, and I am more than willing to do so. For some reason I have a thing for the strange looking horses lol.

S: Ben is gawjus! X

Sam:  Haha yea, he is sweet, apparently I didn’t look to bad on him, size wise. I do like the ickle ponies to ride lol x

S:  They are fun though.

Sam:  I would have him now but unfortunately all of the livery stables have been taken x

S:  Ohh that sucks is there no yards close by? X

Sam:  Not really, I'll look around tho x

P: anything that has Arab in it is fine by me!!! Really good breeding just needs to put on a bit of weight, but he is soooooooooo gorgeous!! Xx

Sam:  Lol yea he is a cutey x

Debbie: Well I met him today and think the same as Sam, he's not the most handsome of horses but he deserves a chance. So as from Friday, he's mine and Sam's
All he needs is lots of TLC and he'll be a wonderful companion pony if his feet are too sore, or a little star to ride if we can get him back on top form. Watch this space B! x

P:  your new little man! I’m really happy for you, he can join Summer in the half Arab lot!! :D

Sam: Haha yea. Can't wait. X

Debbie: He's having his hooves trimmed on Thursday and we'll be putting some hoof conditioner on them too, to get them back into shape. I've got a good feeling he'll respond well to being spoiled!! xxx

Sam:  I'm not going to be riding him til Easter time coz I want him to get used to me and chill out and relax.

P:  sounds good :) There's no rush to start riding you might as well get a really good bond first

Sam:  Yea, I love him, bless. He's so sweet x "
