77. Back to regular blogging.

Magic really does make me laugh, he's been doing things that are funny for the past few days. This morning when I went up to do his stable he was no where to be seen, so I did all the inside of his stable, got his feed ready for tonight, and still magic was no where to be seen. The next thing that I know I was doing his Haynets and I had just watched Lynn call all the horses and seen them come running up. I was in the middle of filling the Haynets when all I heard was 'oi what are you doing' so I shouted back to Jack to ask him what was up as all he was supposed to be doing was putting his Haynets in the stable, and as I had come out the area where the haylage is stored I looked to the left and stood there was magic playing with the feed bucket. Jack thought that he had escaped and then Lynn told me that she had let magic come up. So I grabbed hold of his head collar and walked him up to the stable so that I could carry on with filling the Haynets but after that I really couldn't stop giggling on and off all day.

We then went to see george and see how he had been getting on and spent time with shan and the kids. This evening I went to feed magic again and George came with me to meet him as jack and I thought that we could do him some Good by just getting out of ripley for a little bit.  I bought magic out and decided to give him a quick brush over, he was really good and he let me pick all four feet up happily. I then put him back in his stable and took his head collar off. When I had done that I went and got his food from his stable. The past few days I have gone to putting magic back in the stable before putting his food in. I did that tonight and he was really good, don't get me wrong he still gets impatient about getting his head in the corner feeder but I am sure that in time he will move in from this. I then carried on playing the friendly game with him while he was in the stable before quietly coming out of the stable.

Unfortunately things didn't go quite to plan today as I should have been having a lesson with Fiona so that she could see the new place and so that I could have a few tips on how to do more parelli work with magic. However last night I text her saying that I didn't think that I was going to be able to afford the lesson and she replied that she completely understood, and that she might have had to cancel anyway because Daniel had got an extremely high temperatures. They ended up ringing 999, and he got admitted to hospital last night and is still there..

Until next time
Amber and Magic

  3. Yikes I hope Daniel is okay! Sorry your lesson got canceled.

    Your story about Magic made me giggle too. :D Is he doing well with getting his head collar off without shaking his head now?

  4. He's much better at shaking his head less, he still has the odd day where he appears to get really impatient but that is normally when he is really hungry, i don't know i think he's strange at times lol.

    daniel is loads better know so i think it was just a bug that was going around and he just reacted badly to it :)

CON ARTIST - NICKI WILLIAMS - BEWARE

Okay so this post has taken me a while to post for several reasons but the main one being just how angry this woman has made me.  For those of you that have been following my blog for a long while you will know that back around October of 2016, I was introduced to a woman called Nicki Williams, she was a friend of a friend that was supposed to be opening a centre for rehoming and rescuing animals, but also for horses working with soldiers that has PTSD. We hit it off straight away and came what I thought to be good friends. However warning bells should have probably rang sooner. By January or February of last year the horses that I had agreed to look after (that she had got on loan) Bella and Arthur, she was being threatened that she would have them taken off her by the control of horses act, because she hadn't been paying the rent for the field. Although Nicki reassured me that she had done, she even showed my 'payments' that had been made to Angie. I ended up getti

possible broken hand x3.

hiya guys well it's been a few days and I was planning on updating you all today. Unfortunately I won't be able to go in to as much detail as I want to because I am having problems typing because it looks like for the third time I have broken my hand again!  In the exact same place, how rubbish is that? But they can't tell me because it will not show up for another two weeks on an X-ray so at the minute it's back in a splint and I've got to go back to hospital in two weeks.  Well Saturday I got to ride Gatsby again. We have been working on getting him in to an outline more consistantly but it took me seeing Fiona riding Pumpkin Pie for me to know what it was that I needed to do for Gatsby to work properly in to an outline. We got some really good work in the walk and trot (I have got pictures) and slowly we are starting to get it in the canter as well but by the time we move on to canter I tend to feel quite tired and weak on my left side. We did an exercise th

Hello strangers!

 Wow it feels like a life time ago since I updated my blog let alone since I actually started first writing this blog. So many things have changed and I’ve kept thinking about restarting this but every time I think about doing it life gets in the way and before you know it I just haven’t done it.  So where do I start, how about with the big fella himself. My midnight magic is now 8! He has a heart of gold and after a particularly rough year is definitely coming out of the other side. Magic is a jumping lover and if you let him pick I think that’s all he’d ever do. He’s spent a lot of time working on his flat work which in the long run has really helped to develop his jumping. Last year magic suffered a horrible injury, he damaged his suspensory ligament on his front left leg and on the same leg damaged the collateral ligament that goes to his coffin joint, unfortunately for him he had a pretty bleak prognosis, with only a 30% of being even field sound. With a little bit of luck, blood,
