I drove the horsevan to town first thing this morning to get the new supply of feed for Tiddles while trying, and succeeding, from not buying something else which might have added sugar or alfalfa.\u00a0 Finding the list of ingredients on the back of a 20kg sack is not an easy task. But succeed I did.\u00a0 I stuck to\u00a0 my list and I am feeling immensely proud of this ridiculously small achievement.<\/p>\n

I then went and bought a tonne of builder\u2019s sand and drove carefully and steadily home.\u00a0 The van felt very heavy.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Lunch, and it was peeing down outside and everyone looked wet and miserable.<\/p>\n

\"\" \"\"<\/p>\n

So I let the Old Ladies inside while OH and I were working.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

We had to redistribute the sand to freshen up the stalls which were very \u201ctired\u201d.<\/p>\n

\"\" \"\" \"\"<\/p>\n

Once we had moved half the tonne into the stalls with the help of Skippy (a ruddy godsend), the Old Ladies said they were bored of watching us work.\u00a0 I let them out in the pouring rain to graze.\u00a0 They were perfectly happy with that arrangement.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

This is the view from my shed.\u00a0 I am wet and sandy now but glad the stalls are a bit nicer now.<\/p>\n
