No signs of Ruth's foal

Just to let you know, Ruth's foal has still not made an appearance, but the closer we get to the 5th of May, he may just change his mind and come and join the rest of us in the outside world.

My brother emailed me this photo of his wife's Andalusian mare with it's newborn foal. Many foals are born one colour and change colour as they grow older, this one will be grey. I have no idea what their names are, but I'm sure I would be unable to spell them anyway if I did!

I have a bit of a hectic weekend coming up, involving Bombay and Maud, but more of that next week.

Still digging furiously in the garden, trying to lay the foundations for my kennels. The plants I have dug up desperately need to be re planted - I'm getting quite frustrated by my slowness at getting the job done - time just flies by.
