Wallop

Today, I have:

* sorted and filed the paperwork of approximately four months
* cleaned the office, ready for computer equipment
* cooked a full English
* cleaned the bedroom
* cleaned the bathroom (after an unseemly gap from the last time)
* ridden Q
* worked T through a lot of unpleasant herding behaviour in the picadeiro while the girls came RIGHT TO THE FENCE and spent the whole time grazing apparently unconcernedly and IMO with great insouciance at the periphery
* did some shopping
* poo picked the mares' field
* walked the pooch
* cooked supper

Meanwhile Sid spent many hours cleaning and de-weeding the front drive and garden path, so that in the winter we may have a fighting chance of beating a path to the car without getting covered in mud, and trimming all the overgrown brambles and other miscellaneous vegetation to ensure that it doesn't short out the electric fence.

The girsl spent the entire afternoon loafing in their shelter so that when the time came for evening doings and goodies they couldn't give any less of a monkey's and stayed resolutely grazing on the other side of the field.

In view of all this and the session with Tessa yesterday, who explained to us the new research revealing that movement has a huge impact on the ongoing efficiency of the central nervous system, our new phrase is "movement is the key". If there's any justice I should have one of the best CNS's in the business.
