A glorious day. Late afternoon walk in the New Forest (which isn’t really a forest) with a good friend, our dogs, and her two sons on horseback. Much-needed human companionship and just a lovely time.
Anniehoo: It was lovely. So nice to be out - we’ve known each other for 50 years, as our parents were friends. Just great to connect. This lockdown has been tough; so glad I have my puppy for company!
Indikon: It was stunning. Some really cotton-wool clouds but otherwise just green & blue. Poppy is now fast asleep - all the excitement! She behaved perfectly off-lead around the ponies.
hazardwarning: What a good girl. Bembo gets a bit unsettled by horses. He’s just not used to them. I can’t remember exactly how it went when we passed them in the lane near my mother’s, so it can’t have been too bad.
Indikon: Poppy has met some before, but she’s been on lead and was a bit nervous. She got a bit close at times but came away when called - & the ponies weren’t rattled. She didn’t go near the foals, bless her. Very proud of her.
