When I went to catch him he was doing a dead horse impersonation and it literally took me five minutes to get him up. I was rubbing his head and neck, had a nosey at his incisors, put his halter on, and he barely moved from his flat out position. Yep he is pretty laid back.
He was good on the road up to home (just led him) and has spent all his time here so far eating. Went out to get some pics of him and was kind of hard as he wouldn't lift his head up for a nice posie photo! But got a couple of cute ones on my phone of him and Bert sharing a hay net. Can't upload them just yet as I've lost the blinkin cable to connect phone to computer. But this is him doing what a horse does best....
Sarah who grazes here is taking her horse to the dressage at Woodhill Sands on Sunday so we are going to go along as well just for an outing. Not entered in anything but will take him there just for a look see. Can't imagine him being an idiot but you never know...My shoulder is a bit poked at the moment (bursitis) so am meant to be taking it easy which is not much fun. Riding is ok but saddling up and brushing is a bit hard. Have an ultrasound booked for next week and also physio and chiro. Plus I'm working full time doing geeky stuff next week too. Arghh too much to do... I head off back to dentistry school next weekend as well so I hope it's better by then. And I hope I don't bugger it up again over there!
Have bought myself a long burr (for getting right up to the very back molars) so will hopefully have fun playing with that at school. Will be nice to have lots of sedated horses to work on too. Have a few lined up to do when I come back as well, so will be busy.
Next on the list is a show name for Oscar... hmmm He is by Colombia and all I can think of is drug lords, which makes me think of Al Pacino in Scarface. So all I have come up with so far is Pacino. Which kind of suits him as he has dark hair, and is quite compact although his nose is much more refined than Mr Pacino's!
