I really really didn't make up 'Ruby's Wintec (brand of saddle) and Gullet (metal tree that can be changed to fit different-sized horses)' and here's the photos to prove it. I managed to get a new medium gullet but it's still too wide for Zorya. So I took it back to my local saddler's, Apollo Saddlery and I've now got a medium narrow on order. They're always very helpful and have various sizes of horse to that you can try stuff on if you're not sure of the size!
Smem and Annie took Zoyzie loose schooling at Emma's yesterday morning. Apparently she was very good. She's been stopping for no apparent reason (we think it's all in her head). Anyway, she did still stop a bit but got a lot more confident in her jumping. She favours one rein much more than the other. This was amply demonstrated when she decided to turn round and go the wrong way round the jumping lane without any encouragement or prompting from the 'handlers'.

And here are some gratuitous photos of Tiger going for a paddle. He's not terribly keen on water and managed to fall in whilst trying to follow Smem up onto the bank. Unfortunately his (not so) little tummy got in the way so he couldn't get his back legs out!

Why do all the family horses have some kind of phobia or behavioural problem?
LOL at this question. I think they (not just these but all horses) teach each other stuff like that. I swear and some must be genetic.
But he's very cute standing there in the water with all that wild mane and forelock.
