Oops! Long time no update! I’ve been super busy at work and had a couple of weekends away from London, back now though so I’ll be back to more regular updates.
Dino is doing great at the moment! He’s been going really well in the school, back to moving more forward although we’re only cantering when out and not in the school yet. Not been working too much in the school, but really happy with how he is right now. We’ve been doing a fair bit of hacking – with some gentle cantering up the disused railway track and up the bridlepath a bit. He feels fine, but David will be out to see him in a couple of weeks and hopefully he’ll get a clean bill of health :db:
It was my birthday on Friday so today my friends Claire & Pamela took me out to the Water Meadows at Bricket Wood and we had a super hack! :db: We were out for two hours and Dino was shattered when he got back in, but we got to play in some water for the first time :wub: I wasn’t at all sure he’d go in, and although he was a super brave lead pony for most of the hack he wouldn’t walk into the water until someone else had, but he followed Tally well enough. I didn’t get the cutest bit on video where he was having a good splash with his front legs but I did get some footage: https://www.flickr.com/photos/silkyraven/18013046706/
Was a lovely day for a hack – excuse Dino’s ears he wasn’t as annoyed as it appears, he heard the camera noise the phone was making!!

Ok, I’ll stop now. No more trips planned for a while :laugh:
