So much going on, and lots of rehab news...

A busy weekend, with Flynn the Second going home after a last minute change of transportation...(though it worried Stacy more than it worried Flynn), and he arrived back in Essex in style last night

Flynn has made great progress while he has been here and I am really pleased with how his hooves are changing.  He has been back in work for many weeks now, instead of still being on box rest, and has gone from strength to strength...

...and today he has functioning hooves, though he still has several months of improvement to go. 

Then we had visits from Sarah (visiting Solar) and Emma (visiting Nico).  They have been here in fog, in rain, in gales and today...finally...in sunshine - or partial sunshine, which is the best we can usually do...

I have footage to upload but it will be a few days before I manage to do that, probably, though you will see it here first :-)

In the meantime, I had an idea...

The owners who have had horses here are fantastically supportive of each other, whether on Facebook, HHO or elsewhere and have been wonderful in the past in sharing information and incredibly generous with their help for other owners too.

But there are people who aren't on Facebook or don't want to post online on a big public forum, so I though it might be useful to start a small, private forum just for rehab owners.  I've just set it up and you can find it here, so owners past and present, feel free to jump in - its only us ;-)

I hope it will be useful not just for sharing news but for arranging get-togethers, passing on helpful info and having a moan about the rehab rollercoaster - as well as getting inspiration when its all going well.  I will email everyone over the next few days and let me know if you have any problems joining.

And talking of inspiration, how about these clips from Hannah and Patsy, who was here as a rehab last year...

Hannah has made a tremendous commitment to Patsy and its wonderful to see that dedication paying off, and how good she looks now, a year later, in Hannah's latest video...
