decisions

How things can change in a few days; the temperature is hardly even making it to double figures and now we have rain to add to the misery of cold. I went down to the boys tonight with the intention of bringing them in for the night...they had other thoughts (wouldn't even come over to say hello to begin with) and were all warm and happy eating in the rain; so they're still out. They have a good canopy of shelter under a huge evergreen and a good thick hedge with some canopy so I'm sure they'll be fine but t'other half is giving me grief...argghhh. He's not one bit interested in horses these days but now he's doing my head in about leaving them out. Hope everyone's keeping warm during this un-seasonal chill.

well they know best....

ours are happy to come in (but then i think they know they'll run out of food if they stay out...)

Yes I guess that's the trouble Claire, ours have a field full and seem happy to stay put, lol, better for their waist lines if they came in!

*lol* Always the way, I'm sure they'll be fine and you can always bring them in tomorrow if they need a break.

Alternatively, if OH is concerned, send him out with multiple headcollars and leadropes and leave him to it ;)
