For a traditional Forest pony, Nelly Noo adapts very well to new kitchen appliances. Here she is enjoying her new Hay Hutch with Theoden. I had a change of heart about taking her to the field at Brockenhurst because there is a Yew tree in it and even if it was fenced off, Nelly has always made short work of electric fencing. She's been out on the Forest again but I have brought her in pending the farrier's next visit. She's looking fantastic and has a wonderful winter coat.
Charly and I got carried away today and had a two and a half hour ride and a lovely canter around Hazeley Inclosure which is encircled by a very sandy track. Everywhere it is so wet but both horses are getting good at looking down to check the terrain.
