Last night I drove to Bournemouth to collect Chris, my very nearly ten year old nephew. He is holidaying with Mum and I until Thursday, so I hope to get him riding some more. Blue is not the best pony to learn to ride on – he has a lovely mouth, but he is so sharp and quick on his turns that Chris tends to slide off sometimes. I think that I am going to be wandering the lanes with the pair of them and with my fingers crossed that we don’t met any tractors – and of course I can’t take Chris out on Wednesday because that’s the day the rubbish is collected and there are tigers hiding in every wheelie bin by the side of the road!
