Will you believe me if I tell you that my camera battery was flat today when Mars decided to load and let us close the partition for the first time. I wish I had also taken some pictures of him in the mock trailer where, despite the tarpaulin flapping in the wind, he was completely relaxed. I am sure it helped to prepare him for being enclosed in the real trailer.
Later, Ludo went out for his first ride with another horse and behaved impeccably considering that Petra didn't and they were both covered in horrible flies.
Jim turned up later to do a photo shoot with Theoden's feet for an article I'm writing for the Listening Post. Where was he when I needed him?
