An indecently early start to the day with the alarm going off at 5.30am! Mum and Dad headed out at 7am with Mum's riding instructor Ella to drive to somewhere near Stanstead to look at, of all things, a horse.
They got home around 1.30pm all very pleased with themselves as they had bought Mena.
She is a 7 year old piebald and came over from Ireland about a month ago. Mum says she is really lovely, very calm and friendly.
Thankfully for the garden she won't actually be living with us but at our local stables where Mum rides every week and where I am sure she will be spoilt rotten by the girls. She will be collected next week, so hopefully I can meet her sometime soon. I promise to be on my best behaviour.
