SUNGLASSES ON!
Too hot to ride (or do anything) and finally I'm wearing flip-flops! ..still wearing wellies in the fields though, this mud will take more than a hot weekend to dry out!
The boys have spent all weekend in their stables getting out of the heat and away from the flies, despite Saturday morning being field-swapping time, and they have access to new grass and venue, they have decided the yard is the place to be. Of course they have fresh haylage and sweet smelling clean beds to lie-down in, so it's all very luxurious.

Even the young swallow babies are leaning over the rim of their pre-fab RSPB nest John put up for them, and panting...I have warned them Africa is hotter, but they don't go there until September!! The swallows arrived late and by the time they got here and started mending last years nest, Min had discovered a way into it....
.... despite John putting up barriers so the cats couldn't get near....she's very cunning. Anyway, we felt they were running out of time if they were going to have babies and fly back to West Africa by September, so John put up a pre-fab, which they've had 4 babies in!
Tom & Henry have been brushed to within an inch of their lives, and are super shiny. Here are a few shots form the weekend...
...wish I could get my hair as shiny!
...yummy
