Visit to see Drum

I went to see Drum the day after my birthday. He seemed very happy and ho-hum about everything, so he was pretty relaxed. He was still very licky and cuddly. I took some gingernuts for him and got a few photos. Gemma just hopped on and rode him out to the paddock, he thought a cover on the ground was going to eat him but walked on no problems when told to, he also thought there was a monster in the hedge a couple of times (only Liam the dog) and he would stop to look, but didnt play up. He trotted and cantered in both directions, changing reins a few times and did some lead changes which was great to see. He still has his head down quite far while he tries to find his balance but he is working happily. I didnt get very good photos but I will add a couple of the better ones.

Gemma also FB me last night and said: "Hiya! guess what! Drummer is learning to Jump! He is getting the idea, is VERY careful and pretty sensible. Will take some vids tomorrow if I have someone with me to do the recording." So that is pretty exciting! Cant wait to see the video if she gets one.
