Now Bill!

Now Jack has started School can start on Bill.  With XmasHolidays etc, Bill turned out.
  But started just catching in big paddock, groom.  Then lead down road, around town.  First lesson Lunge small circlen at a walk. under a minute to teach each way! Sacked (re rubbing sack then light taps then hard) 5 mins!

 He trusts me now!

  He was never properly broken in, and the next owner bashed him because he didn't do as told!
  Anyway, he is a lot calmer now, and very intellegent, so up the training a bit!

 Got a pinched nerve in my hip, so Fri just topped his water, walked up to him with halter, patted, gave a carrot slice, and walkjed away.
 Bugger me if he did't at fence watch me walk, and when I out of sight, neigh!!
As you can see, the rain scald gone! And worming did a good job Too!

Jack has Started School!

That means now I can work on bill!
 And work Jack's pony Splash, she a darling Tiny Tots led Barrel Race (no race 4 jack - but he steered her around the Barrels!)  I rode her a bit trot and walk, snd she at 3 yrs old, went like an old Nna for Jack!
  For some reason cannot put phots of Jack on Splash re Rodeo!
