Yay! In 1999 The famous British born physician #FreemanDyson estimated that hay was the most important invention of the last 2000 years, because it made it possible for us to keep livestock. So it’s worth taking hay seriously. ☀️ #ponyhour

The hay harvest is inspected and approved and we’re ready for Midsummer Night celebrations. 🔥 #ponyhour #SanktHans #SaintJohn

It’s appalling and I can’t believe the moral downfall of the profession I grew up in. No integrity at all. 💴💴💴 I’m glad it’s being addressed and grateful for the #Veterinarians speaking up. #ponyhour

Update on little #RescuePony My #farrier has done a great job. She is much better than when she arrived. She tested negative for Cushings and we hope she is on track to recovery. Never mind she fractured my wrist… :-) #ponyhour

Practicing their math. #triangle #ponyhour #ponies

Ages ago on #July1st Pretty hot and dry like today. ☀️🔥 Please remember fresh water for every living soul. #ponyhour #ShetlandPony

It’s already 31 degrees Celsius. 🌡 We’re back inside with the noisy swallows. #ponyhour #heatwave 🔥

Siesta and #FridayFeeling at both entrances. #ponyhour ☀️

A very welcome #Caturday drizzle 🌧 #ponyhour #ShetlansPony #Cats will be cats. 😽

I see incoming rain. 🌧 Nice! #ponyhour #MondayMotivation #ShetlandPony

Unfortunately we couldn’t bring the ponies! :-) #Frenchie #BeachVibes 🏖 Would you like to go Eggsy Pony & Friends ?

Hanging around the gate begging to come inside. It’s hot and humid and they were allowed. I’m well trained… 🌞 #ponyhour

Ponyfestival at the tack shop. Low maintenance compared to the real ones. 🐴🦄 #ponyhour #shopping 🛍

It’s #Caturday and too hot for outdoor activities, such as napping in a garden chair. Garfield crashed in the tack room earlier this morning… #ponyhour #Cats

Two years ago today, just as hot and dry. The only difference this year, is Garfield’s choice of surface. 🦄😸 #ponyhour #ConnemaraPony #Cats #heatwave

Back to almost normal. X-rays ok, plaster cast removed and the nurse provided me with a very fancy wrist support for when I handle the ponies. (If I promised not to tell the surgeon). It’s always other peoples horses… 😐🏥🚨 #ponyhour #recovery

Munching away and not at all affected by the torrential #rain. Before long he will turn up at the gate feeling sorry for himself. I know the drill after 25 years. #ponyhour #ShetlandPony

It’s wet! #ponyhour #ShetlandPony #Senior

They’re having an important conversation. #ponyhour #ConnemaraPony ☘️#FRENCHIE

The little rescue lady is having all of us on a rollercoaster 🎢. My farrier truly is a ⭐️. It’s frustrating to deal with neglect, bad breeding and the repercussions of lami and snake oil, (which could have been avoided). #ponyhour #RescuePony #fridayfrustrations
