Pals... Today is the day our book 'Watch Out He Bites!' is published!!
#ExcitedEars
Here's me reading our copy to Momma G... Toby is in the back printing more, as it's already sold out on Amazon and in some big bookshops!
Don't worry, more will be available very soon! ☺️
(Hurry up Toby...!)
One for Taz's fan club! 💖
After 2 days of staying in because of the weather, he was delighted to see grass again yesterday, and turned into a big snorty Welsh dragon! 😂

Pals! We've got a pet eagle!
He got all wet in the heavy rain yesterday, so he sheltered in the stable overnight. Toby was a bit worried about being eaten, but I think 'Eddie' was more interested in drying out.
(Momma G says he's a young kestrel. Isn't he beautiful?)

We're all having a lovely duvet day on account of the heavy rain and strong winds! We're not complaining, we've got delicious hay and a lovely big bed! 😊
Stay safe and warm pals! 💝

My Fave Human is home for the weekend, so to prevent her from bathing and trimming me, I persuaded Taz to take her for a bimble up on the moors! 🤭

Look out Toby, she's coming! 😬
(She wanted to admire Toby's new tail-style! Or laugh at it! 😂)

SHE BIT ME!
THE BABY!
SHE BIT ME!
ON THE BUM!
I don't know whether to be outraged or proud! 🤭

I was an absolute angel for Mr Farrier yesterday! Toby's human had a lesson in taking off shoes (Mr Farrier says it's an important skill for horse owners to have) and the baby had her first trim! What a day!

She might be the cutest ever baby girl, but she's got heck of a fine set of whiskers on her! 😂

Isla and Stellar are now sharing our paddock to save Stellar having to escape through the fence to get to us!
She spent yesterday tormenting Uncle Toby and he was a bit exhausted by bedtime!

Momma G's ranting about Christmas ads on telly and festive songs in shops already!
But I reminded her that we need all of our lovely followers to buy our book for their friends for Christmas!
(The proceeds from the first will pay to publish the second!)

Toby was having a very undignified bum-wash this morning, so I was offering moral support (and eating his treats! 😋)

Taz has already finished his breakfast, but his Spidey Senses detected a snack bar in Momma G's pocket! 😋🍫

Spooky things are wandering around at Humbug Hall... 💀
What was that? 🫣
Toby, did you hear something? 👻
Toby...?

Stellar is making the most of what is probably the only bit of sunshine we'll see today! 🌦️

Something weird has happened with the clocks overnight... We don't know if breakfast is early, late, supper or al fresco!
Until we work it all out we'd better eat Taz's haynets... Shame you can't reach, Toby! They're delicious! 😋

Stellar would like everyone to know that she's got a new smart rug, which seems to help her enjoy zoomies around the field! 😁

Don't look now Toby, but there's someone sneaking up on us! 👀

The weather is awful today; our advice is to be like Isla and Stellar, and stay in bed!

If we stare at the door for long enough maybe she'll take the hint and put us in the field...
In my opinion she's spending way too much time flinging poo approximately in the direction of the wheelbarrow 🙄
