Well I've ridden both ponies today and had an extremely heart-stopping moment with Rory.
First up to ride was Pait, went to get her in and I walked half way down the field then shouted her. Que her cantering up from the bottom field through the trees and presenting herself for the headcollar (she is so cute at times). Did a quick ride in the school as she hasn't been ridden for a few weeks and we had walk, trot and a few canters! The canters were half the school as well and lesss mad rush from trot more actual transition.
Then went to go and get Rory in. Was watching him and Duke hoolying round the bottom of the field quite upset as I walked up the road, then to my horror saw Rory try to jump the stone wall from standstill (he got both front legs over) he'd freaked at ruddy traveller with pony and overloaded scrap laiden cart coming by the field who didn't even stop!!!!!!!! Luckily a few scraps no major injuries done and he then went out for a quick blast hack with Dudie so was certainly feeling ok.
One thing is for sure life is never dull with these ponies.
Silly Rory. Glad he's ok x
