Day 10 nin the caravan...
Well Penny's due date came and went! She doesn't look anymore like having it tonight than she did last night, or the night before that, or the night before that.
I keep hallucinating in the early hours, I've seen lots of foals on the cctv, only to find that they are actually piles of poo! Oh dear....
I'm getting really tired now. I have to keep getting into work for 8am which means getting the 0651 train. I was supposed to be starting at 0500 tomorrow but I just can't do it, so I'm sticking with 8am! Red bull is such good stuff. I needed three cans the other day just to make it through my training day at work.
Poor Bonnie (Bev's daughter) fell off her pony yesterday and broke her elbow! How awful! Poor little lovie. I gave her two big bars of chocolate and a big tub of marshmallows to help her feel better. She's only 8 bless her.
Bev and Andrew (who own the farm) have been so fantastic with Penny. They've been really flexible and accomodating, I really landed on my feet getting Penny stabled there. The big field that the two mares and foals will be going in for the winter is looking great. There's grass by the shed load, which will hopefully do them well in to winter before they will need hay.
The CCTV is working well, though going through a lot of batteries! It really does save me from disturbing poor Peepsie every half an hour with my paranoia!
Anyway, better get back to my tin can. It sounded so cool when it poured down last night! Mark stayed with me again. He's the best. It's angie bobs again tonight - they are doing it in shifts!
I'll report back again in a few days time if I haven't keeled over!
