Hm i don't remember when i did a proper update on them both so i apologise if it wasn't that long ago. But anyway..

They have both put a bit of weight on now, Nimby is over weight if anything. And if you remember last year he was skin and bones, he is out of work mainly a decision me and my mum have made. I'd rather hardly work him and keep weight on than ride and him get under again. He's also not being clipped this year.

Antonia (my mate who had Lantern) has just had her baby (so sweet) so will be doing some light work on Nimby soon which is all he needs and he's perfect for her to have a pop around on.

These pics are before we decided to lighten his work load...

Lantern in the next post!
 
Ok so after Lantern poorly leg he has been back in work for a while now. He is going fabulous and has actually put a lot of weight back on. Still very ribby but he is the naturally ribby type but he has filled out a bit.

His jumping is amazing, in fact everything about him is!

And last wednesday (not yesterday the week before) we had our first days hunting. It went really well despite having a few braking issues but he didn't buck once. I will be taking him 'proper' hunting on the 10th and i cannot wait.

He then had a week off, not because he needed it but because i was away.

I got back on and schooled him yesterday and took him in the field today. We had a heck of a lot of bucks all from excitement and he really is feeling well but i've sussed him now and can stop the bucking had head sticking down.

So anyway enough chatting here are the pics.

I am going to apologise now as this is the only pic i got out hunting lol

Nimby was trotting because he'd made a mad dash into Lanterns paddock (they are sperated) and knew jolly well he wasn't ment to be...
