well he has arrived ;D and well he got of the lorry in the middle of the road as we had to stop traffic he walked into his field and put his head down to graze and his hasn,t looked up yet he is amazing i was still doing my fence when i saw this huge lorry coming down the road and they must of thought who is this mad woman jumping up and down in the field i tell you it is fate right from the start and he acts like he has been here his whole life , he has been introduced to la liqourice treat which he loved and he was eyeing me up when watering the other horses, i put water out for him but he liked the big puddle instead i have popped home for a cup of tea and then going back again he is just the right size for me i would say he is about 16.2hh so not to huge yeeehhaaa my horses being really excited at the new arival (actually disgusted because they have been penned in jupiter saying bonjour to my horses and doing his favourite thing and again once again a big thankyou to everyone who made this possible

He is gorgeous, Im quite jealous that I wasnt in a position to have him, or any of the others. I hope all goes well for you and Jupiter, and of course all the other horses rescued.xxx

he is in very good condition a little bit of a heave line but that could be due to maybe the travel, his feet are in good nick a couple of rings maybe suggesting drastic change in his diet no lumps bumps whatsoever, he leads like a lamb and his new headcollar fits a treat he is more stocky and compact than wide we have just had a huge hedgetrimmer going past and he wasn,t bothered i think clicker training will work with him as he is very ffod responsive but we have some glorious wether forecast ahead so he can just chill with the boys he stables fine as he was stabled in a foaling box last night and didn,t make a peep

What a lovely, handsome boy. Sounds like he feels well and truly home already. Can't wait to hear all about the fun the two of you are going to have, he looks and sounds like an utter star.
