...the before and after....and after that too...

...bathtime at WW...
This morning, as the boys were munching haylage in attempt to regulate their grass intake i jumped at the opportunity...well the sun was hot and I just couldn't resist.

Tom & Henry had come out of winter looking incredible but grubby.   

Their coats coming out thick and fast and crying out for a great hose-down. 

Happily John was available as official blog-photographer, and these are only a tip of the iceberg of photos he took. 

 





Enjoy, the cats did, though I'm pretty certain they were just happy it wasn't them at the wet end of the hose!

So here are the before shots:

...the after shots....

...and the what happened after that shots.....

TRAKEHNERS PLAYING:
Tom & Henry at play.

Glad I'm not on them and there's a sturdy fence between us...where's my tea?! 

When you watch the videos, hum the theme tune to Black Beauty!

The photos don't do the scene a complete justice:  the smell is damp warm grass and possible rain in the air,  the sound is blackbirds and thundering hooves on soft ground, squealing from Henry, snorting from Tom, skidding and turfs flying.  Also you can hear me begging them to slow down and not come crashing through the fence as well as screams of laughter! A seriously fast sequence full of energy and power.

I had just brushed them, so it all started with some very animated rolling.

John and I had a few days off and just happened to be out at the time, and saw the whole event.
